A lioness surprisingly got up during the heat of the day to stretch her legs. After making her way to the road, she let out a few calls and 6 of the cutest lion cubs came running to meet her. When she started walking off, they raced to keep up! 😍

Nadav Ossendryver, the CEO and founder of Latest Sightings, witnessed this incredible scene in Kruger.
After a slow morning drive, Nadav decided to head back to Skukuza for lunch. He was with some family friends who had never been to the park before. At around 1 PM, Nadav started to get a hunch. "I normally head back to camp in the late morning, until about 2 PM, but on this day, something told me I needed to be out there."
Nadav knows that it’s usually slow-going at this time, but he decided to follow his gut feeling and the group headed out. They made their way to the S114. "This is one of my favorite roads in the park, plus we saw a ting on the Latest Sightings App about a lioness who was seen in the area that morning with cubs."
After using the app to track the lioness's last known location, it was disappointing for them to see no signs of lions, or anything else. They continued driving for about 2 km, slowly scanning each bush, and lo and behold, Nadav spotted a lion's head.
"I just managed to see her head in the far distance; we all got super excited. The visibility at this point was about 2/5, but that didn’t last long... Within 5 minutes of spotting her, the lioness got up and headed right toward us!"
As the lioness made her way to the road, she started calling. "I knew that she was last seen with cubs, so when I heard the calls, I had no doubt, these were contact calls." Lionesses use a low-pitched humming or moaning sound, often described as a 'contact call,' to let their little ones know it’s time to move.
The anticipation was killing them; they knew what the calls were for, but they couldn’t see anything yet. Then, amazingly, six of the cutest little lion cubs came marching out of the bush one by one towards their mother, who was out on the open road.
"We couldn’t believe what we were seeing! It was so exciting and unexpected; you never really see this during the heat of the day."
They all started walking up and down and zigzagging across the road. "I’m not sure what they were doing, but to us, it almost seemed as if she was showing her cubs off."
"The lions eventually stopped to relax right next to the road, where lots of other people got to see them too. This lasted for well over an hour, and we stayed with them until eventually they moved off, out into the bush."
"This was so unexpected and there was genuinely something special about this sighting, making it one of the best that I’ve ever had."

The lionesses look so strong and fit! So good to know the cubs will be raised well :)
Such teeny tiny tots..❤❤
Just amazing!! Beautiful Mum and cute little baba lions. Mum looks a bit tired but loves her little babes. They're full of fun and mischief - God bless them all. ❤🙏
Animals are sooo cute n innocent 🤗🎉🥰🥳 beautiful creation on the earth
WOW, that these babies are alive makes my heart sing. That people allowed them the time to move at their own pace is astounding. A beautiful video. Thank you for sharing this amazing, magical wonder. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
❤❤❤
Aaaaaaa cutest overload ❤❤❤
Freaking amazing ❤
Thanks for sharing this video. They looked hungry and thirsty ,though
That's because everyone brings cameras but no one thinks to bring any fancy feast or some water!
I can watch lions all day..🦁
Beautiful.❤
OMG they are so precious following mom & love the sounds that lion cubs make.....I pray they all get the chance to make it to adulthood ❤❤❤
Awesome lioness sights. Too many vehicles at Kruger Park though.. 🫤
I agree to many vehicles!!
Where do you find kruger Park I want to know
The tiny cubbies sauntering up to mommie 🦁
Thank you for sharing this family outing😮❤ bless you
Even as "infants" the killer instinct and majestic walk is still visible😂😂😂
Yes love their little stance and paws and posture they are so adorable and they not even trying lol
Beautiful pride. ❤
Thank you for this beautiful sight xx❤❤
Those tourists need to keep well back and use binoculars. Not only are those cars increasing the heat around those poor animals when they are walking under baking hot son but the cubs are also getting distracted and fearful. Dont people realise that those animals have enough to cope with their struggle for survival?
I agree to many people always!
It's all about themselves
Increasing the heat🤣🤣🤣
@@desertdudes3822 Engine gets its power by burning fuel, which hot. Most of these Safari cars have Air Conditioning, air conditioners extract heat from inside to outside. Radiative Heat from the Vehicle, the body of a car is made out of metal, it absorbs heat and becomes very hot and goes to sorrounding area.

SO CUTE BUT YOU CAN SEE HOW HARD MUM WORKS!! WISHING THEM SAFETY AND PEACE AND LESS TOURISTS PEACE AND QUIET PRAYER AND BEST WISH TO THEM ALL SIX IS ALOT OF CUBS AHHH BEST WISHES TO THEM ALL ❤❤❤❤❤❤ XXXXX
What a muscular mom!!
I so love the little ones
The park needs to arrange numerous water holes for these poor animals suffering in the hot sun.
Really?! I'm sure they have plenty of water sources there,but they aren't going to put it next to the road...😅
Absolutely beautiful ❤️❤️
Awesome
thanks for sharing
I’m so glad these babies are alive and pray they can make it to adults. 🎉
The mothers will have to KILL OTHER mothers and babies for that to happen.
@@donalddavis5500Explain why
Wish there was water right there for them they look thirsty.
I was thinking the same I would think water would be in the vicinity! But I would put a tub of water out so I knew they had something!
@@margaretskinner6972 Absolutely.
Lovely ❤
How rare is it for there to be a litter of 6 cubs?
Beautiful indeed, cubzy wabzies they look adorable
There's always that one kid who lags behind 😄
Aka the runt. I hope he or she makes it 😞
A beautiful day 🌹🌹❤
The babies ❤🤗
Totally cool cats 👍
So cute❤❤❤❤
No cub left behind.
Damn it George you're making it tough in the back.
The cubs appeared from both opposite sides of the bush! Three cubs from the right side of the bush and two cubs from the left side of the bush next to the other lioness!
They did? Lemme go back and watch it again.
Really, you don’t say Captain obvious!
@pairrynwatson4229 are you sure? You, Admiral Followup, and Captain Obvious up there could very well be wrong.
@@A_Cowboy_called_JackRabbit🤗 Yes they did👀!😼😺😽🙀😻😹
🐾🐾🌳🌱☀
@@pairrynwatson4229 but... are you sure?
Wow, they're so beautiful!❤️
nádherná rodinka
Moms work out 😅
Natural and beautiful
Absolutely beautiful
The next gen of lions will be on uber
AWESOME! 😇🙏
The introvert further out back
Cutiepi es
It's really funny and sweet there's always one that lacks around a little bit
Will those people STOP moving their cars closer already? They are soooo annoying.
Car owners are idiots..trangressing privacy of animal's
Yeah
Exactly what i thought.. give them some space- for heaven sake!
I thought the same thing!
Yah 💯 That's Exactly What Mamma Lion was Thinking, She's Like, "Really, Oh Great, These People that Just Sit in their Cars & then Slowly Start Moving Foreward....Again"
such lovely moment
animal lion❤
Can they give them Space? 😡😡🤬
not their fault, the people were driving and the lions got on the road
WOW, ❤
Esa leona tiene un solo sueño😂😂😂
6
Yhoooo...I didn't know they can have 6 ..I thought 3 was maximum
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Amoooooo
It’s bad enough they’re sitting there watching them, but the least they could do is be quiet.
You haven't been to Kruger Park and you don't know how rare that sight is and the excitement it generates. I'm sure they tried their best. In situations like that you want to create a view for the cars behind you. Difficult to behave like in a movie theater.
It looks like lioness is hungry and can't feed cubs.
6 babies they have to feed and care for..nature..
❤❤❤❤❤ too much background noise
So beautiful action
mother is worn out as it is with all the cars around being a distraction the cubs slowing her down too get back too the pride where she can relax
❤❤❤
Lucky day.🤗😺
Cute little kitties 😍😍😍😍😍😍
@@Amish_Paradise🤗 Aren't they cute👀😍 just bopping up & down trotting to keep up with mom!😼😺😽🙀😻😹🐾🐾🌳🌱☀
There should be a 100 metre stay away law
so sad,evenntheir habitat is encroached ,by road and nosey people in their vehicles....
Yes, I agree.
Beautiful...but they all look so very hot & tired.😥
but it would nicer if we can see the baby lions instead if the darn cars
So cute
So cute I love it ♡♡♡ ❤❤●●●
ভিডিওর সঙ্গে মিউজিক হলে ভালো হত😅
these cars must not be so close
Where are they ?
All of them are not hers,she's probably their Aunty
Race indeed. Not sure those motorists will agree with word choice
They look like they could use a meal, why not come down from the car
Animals were disturbed with so many vehicles around
@khor_khor🤗 They are not bothered by the vehicles, if anything they're probably bothered by the hot sun and being thirsty and hungry!😾🙀🐾🐾🌳🌱☀
❤
😊
Is she okay 👌 and is the Queen single or married?
HA HA... SINGLE BETTER !!!!😅😅😅😅
Better SINGLE... else she HAVE TO HUNT for the MALE SLUGGISH !!!...
You are to lucky, where is this site❤
🎉🎉❤❤
She used vitro method?
At least there's not too many cars/SVUs/trucks or lorries to spook the cute lil cubs. Disgusting!!
