Yesterday we drove out to one of our favorite places in South Africa: Ukutula. This is where we can sit down with lion cubs and play with them for a while. We all love seeing the cubs, and it is something that we will really miss when we leave South Africa.
At Ukutula, we sit on a blanket in the grass while the park guides bring cubs over to our laps and continue to do so as cubs wander off. It was great to see the girls with cubs crawling all over them and to see their reactions. Kaelia kept commenting on how they "are so cute!" and Taelyn tried to drag her cubs around like she does with Meeka. Needless to say, both girls came away with a few scratches on their legs and arms.
Here are some of the pictures and videos from the experience.
