First, I found the 2 cubs alone right next to the road - then their mother came from across the dry river bed - the cubs ran from this side down to the dry river bed, to meet her - the 3 had a small quick reunion but the mother immediately left again(back on the hunt or maybe looking for a 3rd cub?).

She obviously told them to stay as they did not move from that spot for several hours(they almost looked like Elephant dung with the naked eye and other cars drove right past until we stopped them and told them) - then another female showed up(most probably their "aunt") as she went and laid a few meters away but the cubs stayed at exactly the same spot which their mother told them to stay(during the quick reunion) - then the aunt left as well and crossed the road in front of us.

Lionesses with cubs often get help from another female in the pride when the cubs are still young. We sat there for just over 6 hours waiting patiently to see what the outcome will be but left when the 2nd Lioness moved off and left the 2 cubs yet again abandoned...

Later that evening, we got the news that the mother returned and all 3 left together. A huge sigh of relief!

This video is the result of several clips joined together.The video was filmed on the Biyamiti Loop during a recent Safari in the Southern section of South Africa's Kruger National Park.

Kruger National Park is a South African National Park and one of the largest game reserves in Africa. It covers an area of 19,623 km2 (7,576 sq mi) (almost The Size of Wales) in the provinces of Limpopo and Mpumalanga in northeastern South Africa, and extends 360 km (220 mi) from north to south and 65 km (40 mi) from east to west. The administrative headquarters are in Skukuza. Areas of the park were first protected by the government of the South African Republic in 1898, and it became South Africa's first national park in 1926.

To the west and south of the Kruger National Park are the two South African provinces of Limpopo and Mpumalanga, respectively. To the north is Zimbabwe and to the east is Mozambique. It is now part of the Great Limpopo Transfrontier Park, a peace park that links Kruger National Park with the Gonarezhou National Park in Zimbabwe, and with the Limpopo National Park in Mozambique.

The park is part of the Kruger to Canyons Biosphere, an area designated by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization as an International Man and Biosphere Reserve
