Vintage 8mm home movie footage from Nigeria in 1969 shows a young lion cub resting on a rocky outcrop under a bright blue sky with scattered clouds. The lion, with a developing mane, lies alert and turns its head to stare directly at the camera with an intense, watchful expression. The film exhibits classic Super 8 grain, color fading, and slight motion blur, capturing a candid moment of wildlife in its natural habitat. The footage has a nostalgic, archival quality, with dark borders framing the image, characteristic of home movie film reels.
