The Lion Park - Part 2 - The Cats
Maybe the most interesting part of the day was going through the big cat enclosures. The animals are open and free to roam as they wish. So as you drive through, it's key to keep an eye on things and people in cars are supposed to keep their windows closed. We quickly opened and closed the windows to get a couple of shots. The lions were amazingly close. In fact, at a couple of points, one came up to the game viewing trucks.
And once, one wandered over to stand right next to the front of our car.
And of course there were a lot of lions lazing about, given it was a pretty hot day. Seeing them lying there, you can see why they are called King of the jungle (even though there is no jungle here). They are truly majestic.
Even cooler were the WHITE lions. There were a bunch of them and there were very very interesting.
And of course, the baby lion cubs were adorable...
