Great emotion and body language between mother and cub. I love it. Just makes you smile. I would love for you to enter it in my Emotional Body Language Challenge I have going on. It is for people and for animals so a wide diversity. People who have entered though have told me they were only able to find it through my profile so you would have to go to my profile, to challenges, to created.

Your photo fits the criteria on what I am looking for. I am looking for photos with emotion, that create emotion in the viewer, that show great body language, etc..... Your photo is all of that.

OUTSTANDING. Since lions are declining at such a rapid rate, it is so good to see a small healthy wee one. WHAT A JOY
