Two lions approached the wounded fox cub and gave him protection (6 photos)
The lion is without a doubt the king of beasts. There is no more majestic and graceful animal on the African continent. And more dangerous too. Meeting lions, as a rule, does not bode well.
Nevertheless, almost human emotions are not alien to these animals. Workers at a national park in Botswana witnessed an impressive scene. They saw a pride of lions moving sedately along the road. Lying in their path was a crippled sand fox cub.
His back leg was injured, so he was unable to escape in time. It seemed that he would become an easy prey for the lions...
But as the pride approached the wounded fox cub, one lioness's maternal instincts took over. And she began to protect the baby.
Even the leader of the pride got it from the angry lioness!
Seeing such a decisive rebuff that the mother lioness gave, the other lions lost interest in the little fox.
The baby was no longer perceived as prey. In principle, it is understandable. Will the kings of beasts be able to feed on them?
The lions simply made a halt at the site of recent battles. From a distance it even seemed that the little fox was also a member of their pride.
After some time, the little fox realized that he had nothing to be afraid of, and slowly hobbled away on three legs.
Even wild animals have compassion! If you were touched by this good story, then do not forget to share it with your friends.
