::parental advisory:: on lion content::

since i'm not afraid of anything ~ could that mean i’ve nothing to fear

said the cub to his mother who replied ~ oh sure son its why i'm here

today daddy told me we’ve no conscience ~ i thought it was insincere 

remember son if a young gun takes him out ~ you too shall disappear

what about you mum ~ i become estrous and get taken from the rear 

By
David Kavanagh 

When a new pretender takes over or defeats
the alpha male of a pride, he usually kills all 
his cubs too, one might think the lionesses would 
hate him, but they immediately become 
estrous and submit themselves to their new 
master, and the cycle begins all over again
