On our evening drive on the 4th of February we came across a pride of lions 2 females 1 male and 3 cubs perched on a kopje close to blue crane road .They were looking at different directions from where we parked our vehicle
Soon 2 cubs started coming of the kopje, and appeared to be stalking 2 warthogs in the distance , they used all the cover they had to get about 40 meters from where the prey was , lack of experience played a major role to the escape of the warthogs
They rushed their attempt as the warthog noticed them and ran away .it took them all most 30munites before they rejoined the pride .Both parents never made any attempt to try and hunt which showed that they had eaten before
