Masai Mara GR & The Lion King

We arrive in Masai Mara Game Reserve on the last leg of our African safari. One of the most well known & widely documented reserves in Kenya.

We are now eagerly looking forward to completing our sighting of the big 5 with the African lion and the Leopard. So here we have the African Lion with a distinctly bigger mane than his Asian counterpart. The picture at the beginning of this blog is of a young Lion & Lioness also in Mara GR








he decides to to go over to his family

This young Lioness has been trying to unsuccessfuly chase warthogs.









We come within kissing distance of this lioness. She has seen many homo-sapiens and is clearly not impressed by the Indian (or any other) sub-species that are enthralled by her!
