A naughty little lion seems to have learned his lesson when his mother appears to swallow his entire head as part of a play fight. /VCG Photo

The lioness, tired of her energetic son trying to play fight with her and interrupting her from taking a nap, finally decided to teach him a lesson by taking his head into her mouth. /VCG Photo

The amusing moment was captured by a US amateur photographer Dale Johnson on the Ongava Private Game Reserve in Namibia on Wednesday. /VCG Photo

Dale said that the cub was released soon and didn’t get hurt at all, just a little bit dizzy. /VCG Photo
