Completely AMAZING! I hope I get to enjoy a bush dinner on the 3rd visit next month. Probably too much to ask for a lion kill to go along with it…

45 days and counting!

Awesome ! Sorry about this wildebeest . But it was a good nite for these lionesses , especially they got to help their hard found & earned meal from the usual hyenas .

It is always amazing to me to watch lioness kill an animal. They take it down with such force, and then, as the animal dies, there is a certain tenderness. They lick the muzzle, the hide…it’s as if they give thanks and wish it well…they always do it. I am sure I am anthropomorphizing, still it is good they recognize death and that which they are about to receive.
Thanks for the video. So glad the Spartas are thriving, again!
