Even people who go to the zoo and other lion sanctuaries rarely have the chance to see cubs. Either their protective mothers are keeping them safe or they need special care and attention. In the jungle, it is the lioness’ duty to keep her cubs safe and to hide them from any potential dangers, especially predators. In captivity, however, they still find ways to protect their cubs.

Kevin is so grateful for the opportunity to see the cubs up close, especially those that are only several weeks old. Cubs, from his experience, love to be cuddled. They perceive it as a sign of protection from any predators, even from the same species. Kevin is happy to have their cuddle sessions every day and he can see the cubs express their affections toward him. He has admitted that he learned something from the experience as well.
