I'd like you to meet "Mpole", one of the Marsh pride male lions from the Maasai Mara in Kenya. Mpole is a swahili word for "gentle" given his tolerance for the cubs at this young age. Even at this age the cubs personalities are already developing, and this big male puts up with them jumping all over him and pulling at his tail!

Shot on Red Epic Dragon with Canon 200-400mm
