"My cub and I."

This seemed to be an apt reference when one considers that the man sports a face full of beard and a head full of hair, akin to a lion's mane, while the pesky bundle next to him resembles an innocent newborn that's about to start taking his first steps.

The post went down well with users of the microblogging platform as it garnered nearly 50 000 and more than 3 000 retweets.
