The three lion cubs had been sitting perched on a mound for over 5 hours. When Peter and his guests saw the cubs in the morning while on their way to A Full Day Game Drive, he thought that the mother was just away hunting and would be back to invite them for a meal. However, on their way back from the drive, Peter decided to pass by the same area to see what the cubs were up to and sad enough they were still lying in the same area. No mother in sight, Peter was concerned that they may be lost and would be in great danger from other predators like Hyenas and other male lions. Nonetheless, there wasn't much they could do but to wait for their mom to come home.
