Description
The King of beasts. One of Africa's "Big Five." Though he spends most of his day asleep, he's become a symbol of power, bravery and royalty. But run into this majestic creature at night and you'll know why. With excellent night vision, lion rules the darkness, stalking and hunting prey with deadly precision.
~Little Tubu, Hunda Island, Okavango Delta, Botswana
