‘The family that preys together stays together – but only for a year and a half. That’s how long it takes mama lion to teach her cubs to scout up a meal. Lesson One: approach downwind of the goodies. Lesson Two: sneeze, and you get a swat from the den mother. Steady! The impala is skittish – snap a dry twig now and you blow the banquet. By the way, what’s the den dad doing tonight? What all papa lions with any pride are doing – waiting for the pride to serve the antelope steaks.’ – C. Harper
