cub

A leopard climbs a tree, her cub observing from below before instinctively following her lead.

The department has also not confirmed the sightings of any adult female lion searching or calling for her cubs.

Rajab Butt, who has 5.6 million subscribers, was pictured with the cub after he was given it at his wedding last month by the owner of another YouTube channel.

Three years later she was a media star after giving birth to Hamish - the first polar bear cub to be born in the UK in 25 years.

"He is the oldest lynx we have here, and he's fathered plenty of cubs ever since," says Sarmento.
