I enjoy how this little one is already imitating his/her future self, as a ferocious hunter, stalking something important.

Makes me smile to see this youngster moving about on wobbly legs, love the raised paw and slightly open mouth. Very cool seeing a photo of such a young Lion. I think I would like to see slightly more room top and/or bottom, but can't give concrete reasons why really. :rolleyes:
