My sister showed me this program on Youtube earlier, called The Last Lions. What she showed me featured a lioness by the name Ma di Tau, who fights for her family. In the end, she loses her mate, together with two of their three cubs. The documentary really touched me, because even with all those tragedies befalling her, the lioness managed to keep going, to stay strong...
One of the most emotional scenes is when Mau di Tau finds her lost daughter, beaten and with her spine broken. She can't use her back legs no more, and painfully, her mother realizes all hope is lost for her. Thus she forces herself to leave the dying cub to its fate. I swear, if a lion could cry, that lioness would've wept rivers...
I'm going to watch this, I thought Kamunyak's story was sad (but amazing), I want to see Mau Di Tau's story...I love the lionesses who aren't killers but they serve as teachers, defying the laws of nature how we humans view them.
I did and it was amazing and sad, that poor lioness but each challenge she took something in return, like the eye from the lead lioness (that is one silver eye). I think Ma has been burned into the Lioness Hall of Fame, With Kamunyak, Siva, Chipazuwa, and others.
You know, when I saw the poor little cub I instantly thought of Briarlight, she broke her spine and was just like that cub...only her Clan didn't abandon her
I recognized the narrator, he voices Scar from TLK. I think he did a good job of it for this one.
True, But I only hope she went quickly...I don't want to think of her being ripped to shreds by hyenas, perhaps dying from a cold in her position...I think I'll always call her Briar.
I wonder how old this is, Mau might be alive still, depending really. Some lions get to be old men and ladies, though most of those starve or of no use. Kamunyak vanished without a trace, and I don't know about the others...Like the Lions of Crocodile river, the swimming lions (she counts as one), and The elephant hunters
Yeah, the series is only from 2011, so there's a good big possibility that she's still up and living. And perhaps also that little son of hers <3 Oh, I remember the swimming lions, although I barely watched all of it.
Yeah, there could have come another male lion around, and she seemed like the type who enjoyed having babies. It's mysterious really, how many great personalities exist in the animal world <3

No, but this poor thing had no choice. She wouldn't have survived, the poor baby.

We'll never know, but we can hope.

Maybe, she might had more cubs by then too, maybe her name will finally have meaning then.
But I love her now, she's a good lioness, like Siva, Kamunyak, Chipazuwa and countless others.
I forgot the name of the swimming lions though
