It's Monday and that sucks. But if we know one thing about the case of the Mondays, it's that they can easily be cured by videos that feature one type of animal that is sneaking up and adorably spooking a different kind of animal.

Yes, that's a very, very specific genre of animal video but trust us on this one.

So today's viral video of cuteness involves a tiny lion cub "stalking" one of the dogs that lives with him on the Cornellskop Animal Training Farm in Cape Town, South Africa. Well, he doesn't so much as "stalk" the dog as much as he kind of walks up to it and the dog is too distracted to notice until it's too late.
