Thika's Cubs!!!!!

Finally we have been waiting for this for ages. 5 and a half months after the last time we had a visual of Thika (female lioness) and her cubs. While looking for the other lions (Panthera leo) and by chance on East West Highway they just walked into the road and disappeared again just as fast as they appeared. We only managed to get a blurred picture and a glimpse of the real thing, but it still qualifies as a sighting. We are happy to announce that she has managed to raise two healthy cubs, and we look forward to the next time we get to see them.
