Lion and tiger cubs herd sheep at South African ranch

These adorable lion and tiger cubs appear to have confused their future roles of Kings of the Jungle to that of a pair of sheepdogs instead.


The cute cubs have taken to chasing after the sheep on their ranch and rounding them up in a style akin to One Man and his Dog. The cheeky pair even crouch down in the long grass and pounce towards the herd to control them.

But comically, their owners say the cubs are just as scared of the sheep as the herd are of them - which doesn't bode well for their futures at the top of the food chain. The white lion, a four-month-old named Mohlatsi, lives at the Ranch Hotel, in the Limpopo Province in South Africa.


His tiger companion, affectionately nicknamed Tigger, is spending six weeks at the location in transit from a breeding programme to another conservancy.
