Lion Cubs Meet Their Dad For The First Time In Adorable Footage

Usually, a lion is not getting along pretty well with its new born offspring, but this time a 500lbs male gets soft when he meets his three cubs for the very first time. The adorable moment was caught on camera and got over 23 million views since!

"We were confident that Zawadi would be tolerant of his cubs right away, and we're glad we were right because the cubs rushed him as soon as they saw him," said Laura Weiner, lead Africa keeper. "At first he was surprised but as time passed he grew more patient. A few days later, he was grooming them."
