Shanto: *fierce, king of the jungle, warrior king*
Zookeeper: "Who's a good boy?"
Shanto: "I'M a good boy!"
Lol
In bengali language shanto means calm and composed
@Legendary super Vegeta are you alright buddy? Do you need to talk about it?
king of the jungle? Why is he kept inside a wire fence then being thrown food?
@@60toodles Because humans have guns and a skilled gun-user can overpower nearly any other living creature. Also, some particularly disturbed humans think it's fun to kill other living creatures (not for food or survival, just for "entertainment") so other better humans have to protect them.
There's only less than 500 left in the wild?, I had no idea the population numbers were that low, that's insane.
Yeah I’d kind of like to know where that statistic. Unless they’re talking about Asia specifically and not including Africa.
They meant there were 500 or so Asiatic Lions left in the wild. That's not to say African Lions are in a great position numbers wise.
@@MLB_CoercedFreeman5OutOfATL Asian lions are a subspecies
@@MLB_CoercedFreeman5OutOfATL yeah its the specific breed. The estimated liions iin the wild is 3000 or so. it was 200, 000 10 years ago (or 20?)
@@MLB_CoercedFreeman5OutOfATL lmfaooo no? this is SPECIFICALLY asiatic lions. aka lions in ASIA. they are extinct almost everywhere apart from one TINY region in asia so maybe dont come out here saying their manipulating a stat or lying lmfaoo
The lion was like shooing the camera man away so that they could do their thing already 😂
Lol
😂😂😂😂
The lion king is amazingly handsome, lionesses are mind blowing, and cubs are cute and inspiring for future!

@@Carryminati-bq3px it’s “lion”
Lion King is my favorite Disney movie.

When the human like version came out I started ruining for my mom by telling her the more realistic facts of the lion nature life. Lmao !
That Lion is AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL AND MAJESTIC! He’s the best looking lion I’ve seen. The lionesses are gorgeous also. All well fed and healthy looking. I wish all lions in the wild had the same care.
keep in cages they are well fed but need the wild. in the wild they die more quickly
The difference being, lions in the wild eat when they need to, they are typically in peak physical condition for their environment, able to keep up with their prey. These lions here at Fota are also very healthy, but are fed often as per their environment and situation, they can afford to be well fed. It is also the climate producing their fuller appearance as their coats have grown to accommodate or adapt to the cooler conditions in which they live, a stark contrast to the blistering plains of the Serengeti or the warm temperate environment of the Gir Forest.
@@theartsyzoologist it’s not the climate that contributes to their coat! It’s that they’re WELL FED, HAVE A VET, DO NOT HAVE TO HUNT OR PROTECT TERRITORY. Cold weather will only make an animals hair grow more and lose hair in the heat. My cat SHEDS EVERY YEAR! My comment is these animals are beautiful and majestic and that I wish ALL OF THEM could live like they do and be as healthy. I know the difference between a lion in captivity and a one that’s free. Unfortunately the free big cats life span is shortened by lack of food, intruders, poachers and canned hunting. It’s why we need more conservationists!

The zoo seems to be getting a lot of undo hate. There's lots of signs that these.lions are doing great.
Thing to address number 1; this is NOT incest. The lionesses are sisters, but the male is not their brother. Iys easier to keep the three parentS together and to relocate the mature cubs. To prevent incest all sexually mature cubs would have to be removed. The daughters would probably be placed in a different area with an unrelated male ( exactly what's going on here).
Two: The small cages are not where the lions spend the majority of their time. They're main area is where the lioness with the cubs were at. The male was in that small area so that the workers could put food into his enclosure, and was then let out. When both lions were in the small area, it was for mating. You can see the door sliding up to let them into the grass area, but the lions chose not to go out. They have enough distance to separate themselves.. The main enclosure was big enough that the mom felt comfortable with how far the other lions were from her cubs.
3: it wasn't forced mating. The lioness naturally came into season.
4: the lions show no signs of unhappiness. Stressed/ abused cats often pase their cage. All three lions were seen laying down relaxing. All signs of aggression towards each other were do to mating. The snarl for " leave me alone" is normal.
Stressed animals also wouldn't have such successful breeding. Stress reduces sperm count, and cause complications in pregnancy and birth. 5 cubs is an abnormally large litter. That one cub didn't survive is normal. That 4 of the other cubs made it shows great care. Young mothers also are more prone to complications.
5: There's conservation efforts because the lions aren't doing well in the wild. Poachers, habitat loss, and a host of other problems are making the wild population go down. In many species zoos are the only reason a species isn't extinct.
6: you can't just put them back in the wild. These lions are used to a slab of meat in their enclosure every day. They don't know how to hunt, or to fight off other predators. Research shows that they're too old to learn either. Successful learning has to start young. If you turn them loose they won't survive.
There's way too much moronic garbage in the comment section; the comment section should be disabled. None of these idiots (yes those of you posting drivel, that means YOU) can listen or process facts. They just react like an entitled child and have a tantrum. Jordan, I appreciate your detailed list of what is facts vs hysteria, but unfortunately, none of the audience you need to reach will bother actually READING and LEARNING anything. And not a chance that they will come back and say, "Oh, ok, I didn't realize that" or "Really? Thanks for clearing that up" or even "Disregard my previous comment; I missed important information".
@@petuniasevan people are calling this abuse?? It's so annoying
Finally someone with an actual brain! Thank you
ppl who think otherwise r idiots and proly spend their time on twitter
Jesus loves you !
I am so in love with felines. Seeing how incredibly intelligent they actually are is amazing to me
They’re not intelligent at all compared to other wild animals (like hyenas).
@@KS-wk6uk okay?
@@m0ndsage Yeah. You?
I love the cat family too! My favorites are house cats and lions. They are amazing! 😀
You have to type in enter savage kingdom national geographic..
So funny how lions move so much like domestic cats, definitely makes me think I can go up and cuddle them lol
Sneaky
I hear they're actually pretty chill during the day while they're resting, as long as you don't mess with them.
@@BENOTAFRAID689 I tried cuddling them during the day like you said, no I’ve lost my arm, thanks 👍🏼
@@Do27gg need a hand?
If not friend, why friend shaped?
1:37 “But he is now making a beeline for her sister”
That probably shouldn’t have made me laugh like it did 😂
There's a bunch of people in the comments who don't know that females in a pride are always related, & they all always breed with the dominant Pride Male(s). This is incredibly normal.
They just don’t want to admit that’s what happened in Lion King 😅
@@FosterBaba exactly.
That's correct. A lion conservationist.
yup 1 male a ton of females related or not, is usually how it goes.
Yes they are always related, I love it when people know what they are talking about.
I support a sanctuary, I have learnt so much from reading books and watching documentaries. They are my favourite animals, I am intrigued by their intelligence.
The lions looks very peaceful there, u can see it in their eyes and they looked so relaxed!
No they're not goddam it.White people
He got one sister pregnant and is now going for the other...men. JK! Love the cubs, so cute!
2:40
This is gay and incest.
@@debolinachatterjee8970 He's not related to either lion and the lioness sisters aren't having sex with each other. How is it gay or incest?
@@LRozSkys you literally said that.
@@debolinachatterjee8970 I made a joke about him being with sisters, neither of which make him gay or are incest. Perhaps you don't know the proper definitions of the words?
to think lions once ruled from italy to south africa to india. and now there is less than 500 in the wild.
I believe they are only talking about the asiatic lion population here, which I agree is much lower than it should be. You’ll be happy to know that overall lion numbers reach 20 000, much higher than 500 but still much lower than it should be. Also the asiatic lion population has been increasing! I believe a recent estimation left them at 674
It's up to our younger generations to do the right things. That is why we got to teach our kids the importance of animal wildlife.
Scary low numbers. Let’s bring them back to at least 10k
These are Asiatic Lions where you find them in Gir forest in Gujarat India.
Their African cousins are much more than 500.
@@ketherwhale6126 the person meant in asia is under 500. The overall populationis 20 thousand
The lion King looks so fine and the lionesses are so beautiful, and the cubs? Needless to say absolutely adorable babies!! 🥰🥰
"This is such a heartwarming and adorable moment! Watching the lion cubs meet their dad for the first time is truly a testament to the beauty of nature. The way they cautiously approach him and eventually bond is just precious. Thanks for sharing this incredible moment from the wild. 🦁💕🌿"
Those newborn lion cubs are unbelievably tiny! Have you ever seen a lion cub at the zoo (or even out in the wild 👀)
Yes, at the zoo
No
saw many at zoos and also caught 10 cubs and their moms feasting on a cape buffalo in the Maasai Mara
No
What a lame name for such a beautiful lion and lioness
It’s a shame that we as a human misuse our powers to keep them in a cage
It’s just so unfair
My heart aches
Kudos to the camera crew for filming these majestic creatures so beautiful! The production quality of these videos is real good.
Just got mesmerised by the LIONS GROWL 😌
These are my kind of kitties! You have the job I would love to have. The lions are gorgeous and the babies are adorable.
The cubs when they finally met there father seemed to b a lot older then what they usually are in the wild when they meet. They def do things differently in a zoo but I guess as long as it’s working and the population is growing 👍
There is no not meeting them when they are just born in the wild unless the mother roars and claws at the male to go away lol
@@littlehowler450 No. Lions dont meet their cubs in the wild because they very VERY regularly kill the male cubs. Mother lionesses keep their cubs away from male lions until they can run away on their own. Male lions in the wild dont usually come anywhere near their cubs until they are several months old. These arnt house kitties, and they dont really care much about their young. Its all about breeding. Less males in the pride, more females (their own daughters) they can breed when they ovulate.
It may be different from what happens in the wild, but the safety of all of the animals is the main priority for these people. They may have met before what was shown in the video. Nevertheless, the extra time apart didn't seem to really hinder the bond as Papa was ever-indulgent of his cubs' rambunctiousness.
@@littlehowler450 the female always goes away to give birth. Usually returns when the cubs are 6-8 weeks old
He trying to tell crews to leave so he could get some in peace 😂
Omg!!!!!!!!!!! Those baby lion cubs at the end, are soooo cute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Awwww bless their little hearts those little baby lions I'm glad they got to meet their daddy
"SHOULDN'T YOU BE IN DETROIT LOSING A FOOTBALL GAME RIGHT NOW"
if they were humans it would be like
"you're sleeping with my sister?"
and then with their children they would be like "this is your brother/sister. say hi. you guys are related but please don't ask how"
These animals are clearly well taken care of
I loved when he went at the camera like oi quit filming me and my girl!!!! Neither of us signed up for a sex tape!
Saddest reality...they are going extinct! Thank goodness for 3 happy healthy cubs!!!
The beginning, him protecting his lioness was so precious
Such beautiful animals and thank you so much for taking good care of all of them. So glad the world has organizations like yourself to nurture and care for these incredible magnificent beasts.
I bet the lady lions love him 🥰
Bless these people for their hard work for caring for these creatures so we can appreciate them in the future, thank you.
So nice to see so many cubs. Singapore zoo recently only have one lion cub offspring. A precious only one named Simba.
6:40 I’m sorry but this is the cutest moment 🥺
By the looks of his mane he looks like the extinct cape lion the dark mane
The king just told Cameraman.. don't interrupt
Look at these little cubs! So cute! 😍
We as humans are responsible for these incredible animals there gods creatures and so are we!! Government needs to impose serious laws for there protection!!!
💯💯💯they were here to take care of us, and we were here to do the same. Nature, Animals and Humans are supposed to work together.

He’s a beautiful big boy beautiful animals
Incredible beautiful creatures
I wish I could have a sanctuary of Lions 💜
Male lions are surprisingly very gentle and protective of their cubs. So it’s no surprise when Lionesses go hunting, they usually leave the cubs with father.
Barbary lions are beautiful
What a beautiful animal. I love loins. I would never own or go near one of course.
I think that it's the lionesses who enjoy the 'fruit of the' lion's loins.
@@chrisholland1504 🤣
Shanto has some skills!
Papa was a rolling stone.
pimp daddy
Daddy is laying his pimp game down. 2 sisters he's doing a great job. No incest here just healthy love making going on. We definitely need more cubs. I'm so thrilled by this. They all look wonderful 😍
shanto the lucky lion. 🤣
oooowwww this is so heartwarming ☺️☺️☺️☺️🦁🦁🦁🦁
Cute cub 😍
They are all Beautiful!
So beautiful!
I Love My Brave STRONGER LION KING and Lioness Queen and Cute LION Cubs so much ❤❤❤👑🦁😘😍🥰

AWWWWWW it is so much better than I thought
They're beautiful
Que belleza de estos Reyes bebés Dios mío
Such a dangerous, yet important time in the life of cubs.
Your video are the best!!❤
Well done guys!! Proud of you!! Keep it up pls!!
When you want one of those cute cubs but you know it's gonna grow into a killing machine 😩
As a fellow male i'm both Proud and jealous of Shanto!
Beautiful
Oh what a blessing to see, ty ! Holy Abba you created such beautiful creatures, oh ty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He's got the life most of us guys only dream of
Wow, I've never seen Asiactic lions, they seem a little fatter and bigger than other subspecies I've seen. But honestly IDK I love animals but definetly not an expert, ( I'm more of a dog person than a cat person )
For non-domesticated animals (Big cats etc.) are called subspecies not breeds..
@@4_Ev lol np just helping ppl out
"In a cruel twist of faith " 🤣
Thank God for this place the are doing a great job all around j
Dang that lion was just tryna to get a lil som lil som but playin hard to get.
As a Leo, I have an extra bit of love for lions. So Shanto is just umm, blessed. The Lion King is Real.
2:45 (turns headphones up) that sound is soooo intense yet soothing, for some reason.
so beautiful they everyone are the sisters are almost identical💎💎 in the face and well POP's he's just just large and in charge he's so handsome then all 9 babies i love the peach fuzz on the teenage boy 🦁 so darn cute 🧡💛🧡👑😍😍🥰🥰🥰😘 i absolute could watch them all day thank you for your video!!!!♥️😘
Having eyes for his sister , sweet home Alabama .
Her not his.
He's not related to the females.
That cage is so small!
It's so cruel to keep a giant wild animal like that in an enclosure at all let alone such a tiny one.
@@TalkAsSoftAsChalk you do realize that the tiny cage is so zookeeper can put food in the enclosure without getting killed
@@TalkAsSoftAsChalk it’s ok
That's not where they stay
@@knightlywill4671 doesnt substitiute for the life they wouldve had in the safari, theyd rather be killed in the wild than to be in a enclosure
💝💝💝love is in the air😍😍😍😍
The lions are obviously very happy and healthy to be willing and ready to have so many babies. I hope this breeding program goes well because these are beautiful lions
3:00 - Can you feel the love tonight?
Dude wtf🤣
…The one thing i was promised i was gonna get to see (them actually MEETING their father), is exactly the thing they didn’t show. That’s messed up.
I love Lion stories!
Nice family
When ya have twins with ya man, but he knocks up your sister with quintuplets.
🐯🦁🐯🦁🐯🦁
This is awesome
Did you notice how the narrator said they shack up.😂😂😂😂
´in a cruel twist of fate he has decided to fall in love with her sister´
yall are very dramatic about this xDDD
I know this is cute in all but can we talk about how these majestic animal are only less than 500 :(
I like watching lions

HAHA
Leave us alone! Can’t you see we’re BUSY
AMAZING! 💙

I know nothing about lions but these ones look a bit fuzzier than the African lions lol
I’m used to seeing African Lions. The male & Cubs are adorable but the females aren’t as pretty as the African females in my opinion. I’m glad these endangered creatures are thriving. Good work, good luck!🍀
Shantu seems to be quite the stud among the ladies! 😺
I still like to see them with room to roam.
Yeah it kinda looks like life without the chance for parole, smh.
@@eRacer314 you clearly have no idea what the actual fuck you're talking about, they're not stressed or sad in any way.
