Author Notes
Committee asked me to change my last rhyming word so from cub I went to thug
Thug ..... doesn t necessarily stand for a criminal .
it has a broader meaning
.. it can be used in a positive way .. tiny thug .. a tough tyke .. resilient.. lives a life with many tough trials but prevails
After the contest is done I will put cub back
Numbers:
Mortality rate of lion cubs in the Kruger National Park and surrounds sits at around 50% in their first year, with the figure rising to about 80% mortality overall.
Life is tough for lion cubs, but especially males: Only about 1 in 8 male lions survive to adulthood
