Mother Lion and Father Lion had gone off hunting, and had told their two children not to wander away. However, a couple of small wildebeasts wandered by, and the baby lions could not resist the temptation to try out their own hunting skills.

They ran out, chased after the animals, killed them, and started eating them. Just as the baby lions were reaching the end of their meal, the parents appeared in the distance.

One of the baby lions turned to the other, and said, "That is the end of the gnus. Here again are the head lions."
