A lion cub, said to be about 25 days old, was rescued by the forest department personnel from Fachariya village in Rajula taluka of Amreli district on Tuesday. The officials are tracking the cub's mother so that the two can be reunited.
The cub was discovered by a farmer Jaysukh Patel in his fields. He informed the officials who reached the spot and gave first aid to the sick animal. A veterinary doctor was called to provide the cub with proper treatment. The officials hope to unite the cub with its mother soon. Sources said that a group comprising a lion, a lioness and two cubs was spotted near the village over the last few days. It is assumed that the rescued cub had got separated from this group.
