All right.

Oh, look at them. Aren't they cute?

Yes, indeed.

A very nice, happy, healthy bunch of
specimens.

I'd call them a typical lion pride.

Very typical.

Normal mother love.

She makes the kill, father eats, then
she feeds the children.

Yes, sir, very typical.

Aren't men something, Judy?

Typical mother, typical behavior.

You two make it sound so ordinary.

Well, Paula, when you learn a little
more about lions, you'll find that a

is a very close -knit family group.

I think she deserves a lot more credit
than that.

I think we just struck a nerve.

Women.

Men.

Well, it all seems secure here.

Right, let's take a look at that area
you were talking about earlier.

Yes, this is it.

Well, from what you said, Mike, you
know, this may tie in very well with

new motherhood experiments.

Uh -huh.

Now, see there?

There's more of that masculine
scientific method, Judy.

Well, Mero conducts an experiment in
motherhood, and who do they put in

Jack, a male.

Sometimes I don't think I even want to
be a scientist.

You know, what chance does a woman have
in a field dominated by men?

Dr. Hardy, look.

There they are now.

Here's the meat I left for them this
morning.

She's going after the meat, all right.

Watch closely.

You see, she's taken all the meat for
herself.

Isn't she going to feed her cub?

I've been watching this for several
weeks now. She never feeds him.

He eats only what she leaves or what he
can steal from her.

Mike, ever see a male lying around?

No. This pride seems to consist only of
the mother lioness and her one cub.

Mike, you said she never feeds him.

That's right.

You're right, Mike. This is most unusual
for a lioness.

What do you suppose happened to the male
at this price?

More than likely, he was killed by a
poacher.

You know, the only thing I can think of
is that sometimes a mother will desert

the cub if he's the run of her litter or
deformed, especially if there's no male

around.

I'll get some shots of this for Jack.

Dad,

are you going to do anything for the
cub?

Nope. At the moment, we are not going to
do a thing.

You're not going to do a thing?

No, I want to wait and see if Mother
Nature won't take care of this by

You think the little fella has a chance,
really? He has a chance.

But, uh...

If we interfere, he certainly won't.

But, Dad, if he goes on this way, he'll
starve.

Well, he hasn't starved yet.

Well, I think we should wait a week or
so and see if there's any change for the

worse. And if there is, well, then maybe
we can do something.

But, Dad, if we wait a week, he will
starve. And if he doesn't, a leopard or

predator might get to him.

I'm sure she has enough mother instincts
to protect him.

Yeah, but can you guarantee it?

Paul, I can guarantee one thing.

And that is if we interfere, that mother
will desert him. And that will be the

end of him.

I agree with Marsh, Paula.

No matter what we think, his only chance
is with her.

You men and your theories. That poor
little cub's out there searching for

crumbs.

Oh Judy, what's going to happen to him?

Poor thing is just helpless.

Once in a while, doesn't wise old Mother
Nature make a goof?

Dr. Hardy doesn't think so.

Hey, Clarence, you're supposed to be at
the dispensary. Today is your vitamin

day.

Come on, sport, let's go.

Come on, go, come on.

Go on.

Mike,

aren't there times that Mother Nature
can use an assist?

Have you seen Jack's newest motherhood
experiments?

No. You men are experiments.

You're like two boys playing games.

Maybe so.

Why don't you take a look at what Jack
is doing?

Now, those are what you would probably
call nature's rejects, Paula.

Well, what do you think of my new family
over there?

Well, I hear you're the world's greatest
mother.

Not me. I think maybe Mabel deserves
that title.

Hi,

Judy.

You see, Paula, Jack's orphanage, all
strays excepted.

Come on, Clarence.

Quite a sight, isn't it?

All of them are orphans.

And Mabel adopted them all?

Yeah, that she did.

Well, how did she do that?

Well, I just conditioned the babies to
find their food and protection by

following Mabel.

This little setup is just a small part
of my experiment on the social

integration of alien species.

Got about five or six separate.

Hey, are you listening to me?

Oh, of course I am.

And I think it's marvelous what you're
doing.

Giving those poor starving orphans a
good home.

Thank you.

Got room for more?

Well, yeah, I guess so. Why?

I'm just curious.

Come on, Judy. We've got work to do.

Woman's work.

Come on, Judy.

Judy, hold the bag.

Here we go.

Judy, get in the front seat.

Judy, we're not making a mistake, are
we?

Well, that lioness won't even feed it
some cub, but certainly couldn't mind if

we gave it a good home.

Judy, you don't think Dad's right, do
you?

Well,

Jack, how's it going?

Well, I have...

Like Paula says, he's the mother of the
world.

Reminds me. I wonder if Paula's taking
in that water buffalo I asked her to.

I don't know. She took off here not too
long ago, though.

Well, I'll turn over and see how she's
doing.

I'll see you all later. Right.

How about this, huh?

What a family.

Look at her.

She's some mother.

I don't think she even cares. Do you,
Judy?

We're going to do something about this.
We're going to rescue that cub.

Mabel did that. She taught those goats
how to eat fish.

Fantastic.

How's Paula doing with the buffalo,
Mark?

Well, I don't know. She wasn't there.

Doesn't look like she ever was there, as
a matter of fact.

I wonder where she could be.

Hey, uh, did any of you fellas move that
jeep?

No. Maybe she took it.

She left here with Judy after making
some kind of crack about the borders of

orphanage. What sort of crack?

Something about, did I have room for
another orphan?

Uh -oh.

That lion cub, the one we saw this
morning?

One more thing, Marsh.

The dart rifles?

Yeah. I took them out of there, Chief.
Clean them.

Okay, Judy. When I stop, I want you to
drop this meat.

Then we'll circle around, and when the
lioness goes for the meat, we'll grab

cub. Do you understand?

Okay. Now hang on tight.

the meet off.

Oh, good. She's eating the meat.

Where's the little cub?

Judy, do you see the cub?

Where?

Oh, good.

Okay, let's go get him.

You little devil.

We're your friends.

I think you think you're playing games.

It's not going to hurt you.

Back to the orphanage. Yes.

Come on.

Judy, listen to me.

It's me she's after.

I want you to go over that tree over
there. Go slowly, carefully, climb up

and stay there.

Go on, Judy. Go on.

You better go back to your mother. She
thinks I want to hurt you. Go on.

Go.

Now, just be calm, mother. I don't want
to hurt your son.

Make it easy.

It's all right. It's all right.
Everything's all right now.

Look, Judy's scared, too.

You feeling better, huh? Any damage
done? Oh, my spirit.

Boy, am I glad you happened along.

Young lady, I didn't just happen along.

You didn't? No, and I think there's
something we'd better discuss.

Dad, couldn't we postpone this
consultation to later, hon? I'm sure it

that important. Please. It's important.
You bet your sweet life it's important.

And that's exactly what you did. You bet
your life, yours and Judy, on a

foolish, childy, schoolgirl stunt.

Why, you didn't even check the Jeep to
see if there were any dart rifles in it.

But, Dad. Don't but, Dad, me. You just
listen.

And another thing.

I hope you realize, young lady, that you
are behaving emotionally not at all

like the scientist that you claim you
want to be.

But, Dad, maybe I feel things a lot more
deeply than you, Jack, or Mike do.

I can't help the way I feel.

Paula, there's no room in the world of
wild animals for the sort of

sentimentality that endangers lives.

Now, I hope I've made myself clear.

Yes, you have.

Oh,

boy, he's really giving Paula the
business, isn't he?

He sure is.

But you know, Jack...

She really has it coming.

Yeah, I suppose so.

Well, there you are, old girl.

You'll be your old self in just a couple
of minutes.

And another thing.

Didn't I tell you not to interfere?

Yes, you did.

Well?

You were right.

Now, I want you to promise me that you
will not interfere with this lioness and

her cub again.

No, he's probably hiding back there in
the bush someplace.

Well, let's see if we can find him. I'd
like to examine him.

Well, Marsh, don't you think we ought to
get out of here? She's about to come,

too.

All right, you fellas go ahead. I'll
drive Paula back. All right.

That should be as good as ever in a few
minutes.

Or as bad as ever.

Dad, I still don't understand.

If that lioness were dead, you would
have taken the cub.

Paula, that lioness is not dead.

And you can't go around adopting every
unhappy lion cub in Africa. Now be

realistic. Let nature work it out.

Cruel way to run a family.

You two are supposed to be my friends.
You know I have a problem.

Yeah, well, our little friend here has a
problem, too.

He can't get along with animals.

Only people.

You know he's an orphan, but he won't
even join Mabel's happy family.

There you go.

Oh, come on, fellas. You know it's that
little cub that needs help in our home.

Now, Jack, did you see all the films
that Mike took on that little lion cub

that awful mother?

Yeah, I know.

Hold on.

Your father told you not to interfere
with him.

Where is Dad?

He's over at the Katanga Village.

You know, Marsh was right, Paula.

He was just worried about your safety.

Great. I asked for help and you give me
nothing but a lecture on safety.

Okay, we'll give you a little help.

I think what your little lion family
needs is a man around the house.

That's it? A romantic interest for the
sour lion? It would sweeten her up?

Kind of a boy meets girl type thing.

Oh, you two have got to be kidding.

No, we're not kidding.

All we have to do is to find an
eligible, presentable, bachelor -type

Nature will take care of the rest.

We just merely go out and find a
handsome, virile, unattached boy lion.

about it.

Oh, Judy, you've got to be kidding.

We love Clarence, too, Judy, but
Clarence is not really a lion.

He's just good old Clarence.

Clarence may be our friend, Judy, but
let's face it.

Romantic, he is not.

Jack, what about my cup?

Oh, boy, what about your cup?

Okay, I'll make you a deal.

We will seriously discuss your cup, on
the condition that we do it over some

coffee. That's the deal. That's the
deal.

It's just good old clatter.

Romantic he is not.

Mike, there is not a single
comprehensive study on animal social

True, because nobody has taken the time
to do it. It has to be done on a large

scale and out in the bush. Of course it
does, but that takes a very large staff

and a lot of money, neither of which we
have. You've got to start someplace at

the beginning.

Hey, where's Judy and Clarence?

Gee, I don't know.

Boy, if you two didn't talk so much.

Hey, Paula, what is it with you?

Those two, Judy and Clarence, Dad made
it perfectly clear to me today that he

didn't want them to get into any
mischief. Well, look, don't worry about

my gosh, look.

My purse has been vandalized. Anything
missing?

My mirror and brush and perfume.

Hey, look here.

What's going on around here?

This look familiar, Paula?

That's my missing cologne.

It was your cologne. It's all gone now.

I wonder who took my things.

I wonder who's been using them. This is
lion hair.

Somebody was trying to make Clarence
neat and presentable.

Someone was also making Clarence smell
sweet and irresistible.

We have a brand new Clarence.

Handsome, attractive, confident.

Romantic.

Boy meets girl.

With a little help.

From Judy the matchmaker.

Don't like to be the wet blanket, but...
What do you mean?

Well, I think we should be there when
Judy introduces Clarence to our

mother lioness.

Yeah, you're right.

That Linus could be a little bit
antisocial.

Well, she wouldn't do anything to Judy
or Clarence, would she? She could. If

thought their enemies are coming in on
her territory, they could have quite a

problem. But Clarence is a male. She
wouldn't. She would.

And Clarence is so friendly, he would
not fight back.

We've got the dart rifle.

We'll have to try and scare her away.
Hey, here.

Come

here,

Judy. Come here, Judy.

Come on, come on.

Judy, everything's fine.

Go ahead and tremble. I know exactly how
you feel.

Come on, easy, girl.

Everything's all right.

I didn't know being a bachelor was that
dangerous.

Yes, sirree, boy.

Who was it that said romance could be
fun? How's Judy?

Oh, she's all right. Just a little
frightened.

Say, fellas, we don't really need to
mention this episode to Dad, do we?

Okay, I'll buy it. What do you say,
Mike?

Okay.

Oh, wait a second.

Let's see what she's going to do now.

Oh, why is she so mean?

Mother Nature strikes out.

Afraid so, Paula.

But at least Jack's batting 1 ,000.

Well, not 1 ,000, Mike, but it's
encouraging.

Hey, cheer up. When we get back to the
compound, I'm going to show you

that'll make you forget all about little
Jonah.

I'll believe it when I see it. Well,
you'll see it. Come on.

Come on, Judy.

That's what I call a successful
experiment.

And she's what I call a real mother.

Real mother?

Yeah, I think so. She's adopted those
two wolves as her own.

Matter of fact, I think she thinks
they're lions.

But Jack, those are natural enemies.

Shh.

Now we know it, but they don't.

So keep your lips sealed.

You know they're as content as that lion
pride we saw the other day.

Yep, that they are.

They've accepted her completely as their
mother.

Vice versa, too.

It's amazing.

They were orphans once. Now they're so
happy.

Hi,

Judy.

Jack, it just doesn't seem fair.

Hey, Jack.

Give me a hand, will you? Hey, Marsh is
back.

Yeah, be right there, Marsh.

Stick around. I want you to see the rest
of this experiment.

You know, Judy, every time I look at a
well -fed animal, I can't think of that

little cub and its horrid mother.

Boy, Dad and the others, they can just
turn off their feelings like faucets,

we can't do that, can we, Judy?

Can't we just have to do something to
save that cub?

You know, Jack said that that lioness
adopted these wolves.

I wonder if we went and got that little
cub and put it in with Jack's orphans.

Oh, no, we can't do that.

Dad made that quite clear.

What about that first pride of lions we
saw the other day, the happy ones?

I bet they would adopt the cub.

All we have to do is get that cub and
put it in with the pride.

Dad wouldn't go for that either.

We

don't

do something, he'll starve.

Can't let that happen, can we, Judy?

Judy, we're going to need some meat and
tranquilizers.

You go to the meat house and get two big
pieces of meat. I'll get the

tranquilizers from the clinic. I'll meet
you back at the Jeep, okay?

Let's go.

Well, how's Paula doing?

Oh, she's settling down.

Fine. I hope my lecture did some good.
Yeah.

Hey, where'd you get this fella?

Oh, he came to me at the village.

His name is Leonard.

Oh. Hiya, Lenny.

Oh, good, Judy.

Did anyone see you?

No one saw me either.

We're going to fix that little cub so
-called mother.

Got enough tranquilizer solution here to
put an elephant to sleep.

This time he won't take any chances.

Drop off the meat.

After she has a few bites, well, she'll
go sound asleep.

Judy, be careful. We've got to make sure
she's out.

Well, she's out cold.

That tranquilizing solution really
worked.

That'll keep her out for a while.

Here, you take this.

Come on,

Judy.

Yes, sir.

I'd say that's quite a family.

Well, so far, let's see what happens
with the final stage of the experiment.

Oh, wait a minute. Now, let's get this
all straight. This is the pup that was

raised by his own parents, right?

Right. Never been with anything but
wolves.

But he's never met those two in there.
Yeah, and those two have never been with

wolves before.

Right. Uh -huh.

So the only brother they have ever known
is that lioness over there. Uh -huh.

Okay. Well, we'll throw him to the
wolves.

Got him?

Yep.

It seldom allows an outsider to be
accepted by another family.

Hey, little fella, that's your new
family out there.

You know something? I think they're
going to love you.

Okay, Judy.

We'll distract the mother and father
with the meat and let our orphan make

friends with the cub.

um

about lions, the females should follow
the male over to the meat if they're

hungry.

It's working.

Our little friend won't be with us much
longer.

Don't be afraid, Junior.

If they harm you, your new mother and
father will put them back in their

Now go on, scoot.

Well, there's one thing you haven't
tried, Jack.

What's that?

The mother's reaction to him.

Oh, yeah.

Well, maybe that'll go a little bit
better, fella.

After all, she raised two exactly like
you.

You know, Marsh, I wish Paula were here
for this part of the experiment. It

might make her understand things a
little bit better.

She sure can get herself involved, huh?

Yep. Here we go.

Instant hatred.

You can never be sure a mother will
accept a stranger. More than likely,

kill him.

Well, they haven't made friends yet, but
they will.

New mother and father. Take care of
those roughneck brothers.

You know, Judy, I think we fixed up that
little lion cub with a nice family.

No,

we'd better go. Let the new family get
to know one another in peace.

Come on, Judy. Let's go.

Well, that's that.

Good work, Jack.

Thank you, sir.

You looking for something?

No.

Somebody.

Well, yes, actually, Paul, I haven't
seen her around for some time.

I haven't seen her since you called me.

That was, oh, an hour and a half ago.

It was an hour and 28 minutes.

You're worried, aren't you?

Oh, well, it's just that lately... Did
you say where she might be going and

she might be doing?

No, I left her right here with Judy.

I'll bet it's that lion cub.

Jack, listen, would you do me a favor?
Look around the compound and see if you

can find her. And if you do, radio me.
Meanwhile, I'm going to run out and have

a look. All right.

and see how they're getting on, all
right?

Here comes Dad.

Well, wait till we tell him the news.

Where's that lion coming?

With his new family.

New family?

Well, yes, Judy, and I took it away from
the lioness and gave it to another

family about 20 minutes ago.

Well, then he's probably been dead for
15.

Now get in and show me where you left
him.

Come on, Judy.

when Jack asked you to.

I think you should have seen the end of
that experiment.

I know I should have, but I want to give
him a good home.

All right, Dad, when does the lecture
begin?

You see that dead cup?

I don't think any lecture will be
necessary.

She should be around here someplace.

Well, there's the mother, and there's
the male.

Where are the cubs?

Well, there they are.

Right over there.

Dad, they've killed him.

Oh, my God, I knew I shouldn't have done
it. No, no, no.

He's all right.

They're playing.

Hey, Dad, they are playing.

Does that mean... Yes, yes, it does,
honey.

It means they've accepted it.

Boy, I hope you realize how lucky you
were.

How very, very lucky.

Yes, Dad, I know that.

You know, by all rights, that cub should
be dead by now.

The exception to the rule.

But isn't it wonderful he's got a new
home now?

Oh, yes, honey. He's found a new home.
But in finding him that home, you risked

your life and the cub's life.

But Daddy would have died if I hadn't
have helped.

Paula, you really will never know that
for sure now, will you?

No, I won't. But I just couldn't trust
Mother Nature.

Honey.

I think you find that Mother Nature is a
lot kinder than you give her credit

for.

How do you like that? That's a real
happy family.

Yeah, looks like the little fella made
it. Sure is a lot better than what he

before. Well, that proves one thing.

Oh, what's that?

That Mother Nature's a lot kinder than
we give her credit for.

Stay right here.

Now, listen to me.

What have you got in there, huh?

I'll be.

It's our little antisocial ocelot.

You know, I bet Judy was going to give
it to the family.

Judy.

Now, listen, Judy. You are not to
interfere with that lion pride again. Do

understand?

Dad, look.

All right, young lady.

Drossed fingers don't count, and you
know that.

Do you promise?

Look,

I'm not kidding. I want you to truly
promise.

I do.
