Hi, this is Rae Winn again.  I wanted to quickly share a photo of one of the lions  I wrote about recently.  No news yet on the missing cubs.  We are out on field exercises for much of July, but I’ll write as soon as there is an update on the cubs or a chance to share some field notes.  I hope you enjoy the photo.
