(perhaps she was feeling guilty after killing its mother)
Amazing scenes took place at national park in Uganda
Lioness eventually picked up the calf by the scruff of the neck and carried it off like one of her cubs
These touching photographs show a lioness adopting a helpless antelope calf - after she killed its mother.
The intimidating beast had just finished devouring a Ugandan Kob, and had the wounds to show for it, when its terrified child emerged.
Instead of making the defenceless infant her dessert, however, the merciful creature took pity on it and carried it away to safety.
