A lion cub was found dead in Semardi forest area of the Dalkhaniya forest range in Amreli district.
The incident came to light on Wednesday evening and senior forest officials rushed to the spot. Sources estimate the cub's age at around five months. The cub's body was sent for postmortem to ascertain the cause of the death.
