This was one of those crazy safari scenes when you are not really sure where you should be. A bit in the distance, two sub adult lions were being chased out of the pride by the dominant male and two females. This commotion caused these young cubs to run for cover. We chose to stay with the cubs and watch (and listen to) the fighting from a distance. They soon came out of the brush and got to higher ground to try to see what was happening. One of them seemed more interested in us than the fighting in the pride. Taken at the Phinda Game Reserve in South Africa. #bigcats Photo by @awc007
