Episode notes
Record-Breaking Lion Swim
- Two lion brothers, Jacob and Tibu, swam almost a mile in Uganda's Queen Elizabeth National Park.
- This impressive feat was a record for lion swims, exceeding typical crossings by hundreds of feet.
Reasons for Risky Swim
- Lions are facing pressure from human activity, poaching, and habitat changes.

Preteen Skincare
