It may be joined by others from smaller litters, the occasional <b>orphan</b>, and very, very occasionally by a cub of one of the other Banbutsunoreichou. A non-Feline can not fit into an ambush. These cubs will play together, eat together and sleep in a sandy pile of bodies. Experience has taught that an ambush can not be split up without a great disruption to the lives and health of all the cubs involved, so the young of servants, lessers and even slaves can gain honour and position by becoming part of an ambush with the young of high-ranked lions. | <table width="20%" align="right" style="background-color:black;font-color:white;"><tr><td><font color="white"><b>Orphan:</b> 1.

β | One of the primary activities of cubs of all species is to practice hunting and fighting, but lion cubs approach it in a unique fashion which has long been allowed for in common law. A lion cub acting in a foolish, or even dangerous fashion will be excused, as will the family that might otherwise suffer a loss of honour, if the actions are part of ambush play. An ambush starts very young, working together as a unit to learn to hunt and kill. The parents of lion cubs become accustomed to seeing their young treating them and the servants and slaves as prey | + | One of the primary activities of cubs of all species is to practice hunting and fighting, but lion cubs approach it in a unique fashion which has long been allowed for in common law.

An ambush starts very young, working together as a unit to learn to hunt and kill. The parents of lion cubs become accustomed to seeing their young treating them and the servants and slaves as prey, using a range of stalking and disinformation tactics to drive the prey into a literal ambush, or of noticing the activities of a few cubs just as the primary hunter in this case leaps upon them from behind. A wise parent will excuse these activities, but will not make life too easy for the would-be hunters. |
