Great captures. Love the interaction between the lioness and her cub.

I love the way the cub is sitting in the second picture. Too funny.

They are usually released everyday, but sometimes they are kept inside. I was at the zoo today and only the male cub was out. I was only there until noon. They may have been let out later.
