Watch this adorable and super rare wildlife moment where one of the rarest animals in Africa - a white lion cub can be seen energetically running after its mother across the landscape.
Julian Payne from Stuttgart, Germany recorded the unforgettable scene as the young cub eagerly tries to keep up with its mother.
Julian has been filming wildlife for years and says this is one of the rarest moments he's ever captured.
He explains: "There are fewer than 10 free roaming white lions in the world. This is the only cub born in the area in the last decade.
"My heart was racing the entire time we were with it.
"White lions aren't albino, their white coat comes from a rare recessive genetic trait called Leucism."
Viewers loved the clip online.
One user commented: “May those two babies stay strong and healthy.”
Another user wrote: “I was lucky enough to see them in the Timbavati back in the 2010's. 2 lionesses. Absolutely incredible!”
