We were on the way to Kleins gate in the north eastern Serengeti yesterday. A great drive with beautiful landscapes. Just as we turned onto the road that leads along the Nyamalumbwa hills, we found two enormous male lions laying on either side of the road.
Resting in the tall greens within meters of our car, these two lions weren’t impressed even for a little bit. As we took time to enjoy the encounter we had a really good look at these magnificent cats.
And wow - can faces speak!
These lions had been out there for a while. Full of scratches, cuts and small wounds – these are the type of lions that rule their part of the Serengeti.
