You’ve really captured this gorgeous animals character here; its almost like he’s speaking to you/us.
Maybe he is!

he was he was – he was saying – pat me pat me :)
he was a lovely creature, and very playful and loving too. He’ll be wild again now, in with the wild barbary pride, and we’ll just have to wait for some more cubs to come along to play with :)
