SPLENDID !! These 2 boys give us hope for 3 lion cubs ( 2 female, 1 male) in Addo Elephant Park, age 12 weeks. The mother Gina died in early December (possibly snake bite) and the cubs were left to fend for themselves. Everyone was looking and hoping for a sighting but chances seemed slim 4 weeks later. Then suddenly they were spotted - in rather poor condition ! They were darted and taken in to receive vet care and help. They will be kept in an undisclosed enclosure for 6 months and then hopefully released back into the wild :-) Resilient little babies these lions ! :-)

So wonderful to hear that they have been found and getting the love and attention they deserve. Each one of our lost Cubs need to be found, if possible, and allowed to be there for their brothers and sisters and to strengthen the future for what still awaits them ahead. Good work! Cachspain

Hola CJ & Luis, look at your boys! You must be so proud of them! Nobody will ever forget that Yame and George would not be here if it were not for you both. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

I was interested in a comment you made Chris about the the cub's retina having to be checked before a cataract operation. As a human I had cataracts removed and plastic lenses implanted but the retina never featured. Is it different with lions?

Hi Barbara,
I will try to answer that question for you. Sometimes "when and if" surgery is necessary depends on the development of the retina and the eye itself. The eye usually hasn't grown enough until the first year. Specialists will soon be determining whether George's eyes are improving on their own or if and when he will need surgery. We are all keeping our fingers crossed that this is something that he will eventually grow out of. Let's say our prayers. Best CJ. Cachspain

Thanks CJ for responding to Barbara. Actually, it was Bev who spoke to Dr Venter the eye surgeon who has done many eye operations on lion, rhino and other species. she could not remember all the technical detail he explained to her.
