The teenage male and the cubs where love.

[theheat0069]

Cool video but towards the end, they go from grass land to dry mud back to grass land, and for PBS, thats a pretty bad mess up. Either way i love all big cats so thumbs up!

they cute

[9493760]

THEY SAY IN THE OLD TESTAMENT THAT GOD MADE US IN HIS IMAGE . WHY DIDN'T HE PICK AN IMAGE AS BEAUTIFUL AS THE KING OF BEASTS ? THE LION . LEO PANTARA. EVEN THEIR CHILDREN ARE MORE BEAUTIFUL .

Gianfranco Fronzi. JULY 26 / 2011

[kingsnbabylon]

@9493760 HE DID! Amos 3:8 The lion hath roared, who will not fear? the Lord GOD hath spoken, who can but prophesy?

[Maryam0]

love it when the "teenage" male welcomes the cubs. So adorable!

But why do lions kill infants they don't know? And why don't the mothers kick their asses when they try to do that?

[RoyalDevelopment]

@Maryam0 They do that to force the females to go into heat. Thus giving them a chance to spread their seed instead of ones he does not know.

[Dustehue928]

2:35 YOU ARE SO SMALL! IS FUNNY TO ME!

[HyperShadow89]

I love when the older male is inspecting the cubs. I can just imagine him saying "alright, come here you little squirts... alright you smell, fine, on to the next one. Yeah you, c'mere!"

[rhettsparkey]

does anyone know where i can buy a season of this show?

[djglebo]

Music at the end - anyone know the name or where I can find it?

[otoleya]

So tender attitude to cubs...

[shadowcatgc]

When the mother watches the big male inspect them, she looks so worried. I don't blame her! But yay for the cubs :)

[btrfan8312]

when the lion is biting the cubs (he is not really)the mother is watching him and like saying "don't hurt my cubs"

[biggtroy101]

mothers will be mothers ...

[fierced1989]

2:41 that's gonna be a fighter, will fight until the end.

[humairahoque]

2:44 is that the father of the cubs??

doesn't he know his own children?

[strapinhotpockets]

2:17 different male pack leader. (has top right giant tooth missing)

2:38 onward, are different male pack leaders. (wtf propoganda!!!)

[josevanreyes]

@strapinhotpockets Usually Lion brothers form prides. There could be upto 5 lion brothers all in one pride. That could be the uncle of the cubs.

[dek5704]

makes human society look simple

[derAffeCharly1]

is there anything cuter than those cubs? no!

[blackstroke1]

The mom was watching very closely, any rough stuff and she would have attacked full speed. I think the male lion knew it too.

[Prinzess26]

The cccciiiirrrrrrccccclllleeee of life...... Sorry, couldn't resist. The cubs are soooo cute!

[FullBloodedHmoob]

1;28, that male lion is a demon, his face changed

[polarbear003]

omgosh, i love it when the young male lion puts a cub under his arm! soo cute :) familylove -w-

[MonMonsieurBleu]

SOOO CUUUTEEE!!!!!!

[EBAudition]

Lioness: Well I gotta do what a female lion has to do...introduce you to the fam. Follow me n act with some sense." Other Lions check: " 1:40...their ok. Male Lion: @ 2:14...I'm just playing...thier fine. Lioness: "Be careful....those are my children." Whoo....it's hard be a liion."

[Crazee108]

I think the fact that the mum snarls a warning at her son... and how he's like ohhh okay, brothers and sisters! *hugs* god i love nature!!!! =D

[SubparPanda]

Wow I didn't know cub introduction was so tense! you can tell the mom is anxious when the big male comes in

[mwarrior17]

PBS sucks. Screw the network. I hope it burns.

[cheetahstalker]

The cubs are cute

[cheetahstalker]

I mad at lion for kill cheetah sambu :(

[CakeEater99Banks]

lions are now my favorite animals!

[Beastlylion]

what a beautiful lioness...

[AshleyJXoxo]

2:08 cat gets slapped by bigger cat

[RideTheLightning316]

2:35 - 2:43 amazing

[AbodeProductions]

You guys suck! See what I mean at 0:47

[sunsetsbythesea]

lions are really very beautiful and majestic, they're like natural works of art!

[prosperabovehaters]

@sunsetsbythesea yes...they are glorious.

[joejar5]

@sunsetsbythesea Yep, just the way God made them(spoke them into existence).

[ktc311]

@sunsetsbythesea I agree. to me all cats are though. Cats are beautiful.

[Khamomil]

@sunsetsbythesea

Yes, but come to think of it, almost all animals are beautiful. Only a very few are ugly.

[nadiasophienab]

bad breath scene at 2:40 XD pause at 2:43 for LOL moment

[snapwrenches]

Their expressions are so telling! Look at the anxiousness on the mother's face when the male is investigating her children. The cubs themselves look so saucy and precocious. I love animals.

[southhampton91]

Those cubs will win anyone over!

[SuperJJx]

2:08 Hes like "neat, this peace of skin sqeaks when i punch it :D

[femmefatale1990]

Wait. How do male lions know that the cubs are theirs? smell? or just instinct? can't they tell that their female is pregnant?

[JJNeepinFilms]

So it's in nature not to automatically accept offspring....interesting. Human dads just might have caught a break...

[cricricricricricri]

it's so cute when at 1:45 the lion hugs the cub :°D

[zeppelinfanatic100]

Beautiful

[Skyeblue28]

The cubs are soo adorable! I love watching lions:)

[Skyeblue28]

The cubs are soo adorable! I love watching lions:)

[jbesberb]

at 1:18 the male lion is like what the hell are those!

[jbesberb]

at 1:18 the male lion is like what the hell are those!

[JUKIO01]

man, lions are more vicous then humans are. they kill babies?

[hamdizzel4]

what you mean the lion did not kill the cubs he was just making sure they were his

[Duncan21carroll]

2:36 shat

[hamdizzel4]

take a look at 1:44 her son gives the cubs a hug wow i had no idea lions can be just like humans sometimes

[MegaBaboon1]

I'm not an animal expert, but what difference is there whether she stays with the pride during birth or goes away for six weeks?

[xTheForgottenOnexx]

@MegaBaboon1

Females have to stay away from the pride because the cubs need time to adopt her scent. If they were born in the pride, the rest of the lions ( especially the male(s) ), would kill them off. They wouldn't see them as part of their pride.

[smilezc1]

@xTheForgottenOnexx No the males,or females wouldn't.The female gives birth away from the pride so they can bonnd with the mother and know they are completly able to suckle from her anytime they want.If they were born into the pride the prides females and cubs will be too rough,but they wouldn't kill them.

[smilezc1]

@xTheForgottenOnexx No the males,or females wouldn't.The female gives birth away from the pride so they can bonnd with the mother and know they are completly able to suckle from her anytime they want.If they were born into the pride the prides females and cubs will be too rough,but they wouldn't kill them.Just like zebras.

[smilezc1]

@xTheForgottenOnexx No the males,or females wouldn't.The female gives birth away from the pride so they can bonnd with the mother and know they are completly able to suckle from her anytime they want.

[nswanjy]

[Jonathanh1986]

I is amazing to think that watching the cubs and knowing that they will be as big and powerful as the full grown male...even though they are so innocent right now :D

[xxmichoxx]
