Lioness with Cub, Ol Kinyei Conservancy, Kenya

This is a photo of a lioness carrying her cub to a new location.

A lioness carries her cub to a new den in the Ol Kinyei Conservancy, Kenya.  Mother lions normally keep their new cubs away from the pride for the first six to eight weeks of life and move them fairly frequently during that period to minimize the ability of other wildlife to smell where they are.
