14 DAY TRIAL // Three lion cubs living in captivity at Oregon Zoo in the United States have recently had the chance to come face to face with their dad for the first time ever.
The event was caught on camera, and footage of the family reunion is available in the video above.
From where I stand, the adult lion, whose name is Zawadi Mungu, was anything but thrilled when it first found itself surrounded by three hyperactive balls of fur.
Granted, the cubs are utterly adorable, but I can bet my morning coffee on the fact that the lion dad is not at all thinking about how good-looking its offspring are.
On the contrary, it is probably busy making calculations about how it would surely have to work extra hours to pay for their education and whatnot.
Hence the fact that, every once in a while, it snarls at them. Unfortunately for the lion dad, however, the cubs do not seem to be all that impressed. Huffington Post tells us that, although it took a while for the lion to warm up to its offspring, it eventually accepted them.
What's more, keepers at Oregon Zoo say that it sometimes takes the time to groom them, the same source details.
