A mother’s love never goes away, regardless of the animal. Mothers love their children unconditionally and will do whatever it takes to ensure their well-being. This article describes a truly remarkable event that was fortunately caught on camera.
The amazing event was photographed by French photographer Jean-Francois Largot. He witnessed a lion cub falling off a steep cliff while he was in Kenya’s Masai Mara wildlife reserve. While his mother was studying the horizon, he had been nosily strolling around. Fortunately, the cub avoided hitting the bottom completely. Halfway down, it managed to cling to the edge of the precipice. However, it was insufficient to keep it alive. The lioness, accompanied by four others, raced to the brink of the precipice upon hearing the baby’s cry for assistance. To read more of this story, scroll down.
