    Mercy🙏I am so sorry for little Kupona😥💔the lioness mother is clearly in distress, it's been difficult for her. I don't doubt for one minute her deep love for her Kupona but missing for so long does not spell well, heartbreaking. Unfortunate you both had to be the bearer of such sad news nevertheless your honesty is appreciated, thank you!

    She seems alone disconnected from any pride. She's childless, she's thin, and the ticks on her neck back and ears means she has not been getting groomed by the othe lionesses, affectionately, in a close nit pride. I feel so sad for her.

      I was thinking the same thing. The ticks are sucking all the nutrition from her and that's probably why they died.Kupona had no competition for his mother's milk but he still look ill and weak. I wish they would do a prescribed burn to kill off some of the ticks.

    How incredibly heart wrenching! Such a shame she was so inexperienced, and we witnessed it. The poor girl. Poor Kupona. I can’t even imagine how scared, weak and hungry he must have been, and (more than likely) die a slow horrible, lonely death. 😢😭😢 The lioness is calling so desperately, it’s just awful to witness. The pride must not be as close & caring as other prides given the sheer number of ticks all over her body. Not much allogrooming going on at all. After watching from the beginning when she had three, then two, then one - now… probably none! 😢 Will certainly be very difficult to watch her with another litter again; we will all be on tenterhooks. 💔😢💔😢💔

F off your savage world. So aching to hear the mom’s anguish calls. Wish we could give more, better protect your species & habitat.

    They say it’s very common for a lioness to lose her entire first litter due to inexperience. I kinda knew in my gut she was going to lose all her cubs after continuously seeing her with 1 cub less, every time they showed her after their birth. This will drive her back into estrus & hopefully she’ll do much better with her next litter, poor girl. ❤️

    I hope this poor lioness can finally find her cubs, and be united with a good lion pride!
