Like my father once told me:
"You were even more annoying than a mosquito because at least I could kill the mosquito"

i love how “mess with dad while he’s trying to nap” transcends species

Those little cubs are probably the only living creatures on this planet who can annoy two fully grown male lions and easily get away with it.

The dad’s are actually being pretty gentle with them in their scolding, it’s always so cute to see cubs bugging their dads! 😂😂❤❤

Dads: /sleeping/

Cubs: *"dad, dad, dad, dAD, DAD, DAD DAD, DAD, DAD, DAD, DAD, DAD"*

Lion 1: “ it’s your turn “
Lion 2: “ no it’s your turn “
Lion 1: “ they are your cubs “
Lion 2: “ some of them are yours! “

Those sweet little cubs are no different than any other toddlers demanding dad's attention when he wants to sleep or watch a game. Too cute!

2:10 - that cub just casually deciding to lay down on the lion’s stomach is a very accurate representation of my cat when I’m trying to sleep

I love how literally every adult male lion exudes so much "I'm too old for this shit" energy at all times.

Lion dads: can't even take a piss peacefully.

"Play with me dad..."
"I work night shifts, Simba"
😂😂😂

[Deeplycloseted]

As a fellow mammalian dad, this is relatable.

Both the males looked like “ They said they’d be back in 10 minutes, antelopes aren’t that fast tf”

[melloreacts]

back when Mufasa and Scar where still homies

[kittyread]

Look at how tiny they are and not giving up with their pestering their dads 😂😂....sweet 💜

[ElleSpeaks]

Tolerant dads, no matter the species, is EVERYTHING 😂❤

I bet their mother was watching all this from her hiding place with utmost satisfaction.

"Hey Hank, get your kids off me"
"I thought they were yours"
"wHaT"
