Sela was gone...his big sister was dead...murdered in front of him. When she was dead her murderer set his sights on him. The wounds from the previous encounter, only two days previously, were stillcovering Dubu's body.
Dubu cowered as the lion approached but then he heard a sound that made him feel safe once more
Don't you dare lay a paw on my son!

This is how Dubu got his scars and how he was saved by his mother.
