One of the lions I was privileged to observe as part of the lion monitoring project I was involved with as a volunteer. This male was fitted with a radio collar so that we could locate him using telemetry. We had to rely on good old fashioned tracking skills & a fair bit of luck to find the rest of the pride!

I couldn't resist sharing another photo of Mufasa, one of the lions we were monitoring during my stay in South Africa!

It was such an awesome experience Carol & I'm always happy to see a little reminder of my time in South Africa!
Never tire of looking at your lion Karen!
Thanks Sumukha!
Fantastic spotting Karen..!
Indeed Francis!
Combination of the singer and the lion and the song ,reduced me to tears!
Emma, I have seen the clip many times but watching it still brings a tear to my eyes! I can remember seeing exotic animals for sale in Harrods when I was child - thankfully that stopped many years ago.
Karen ,you have probably seen this clip. Thought I will share it. The singer Whitney Houston ,passed away yesterdayy. RIP Whitney . Love both Christian and Whitney.

Thank you July! I loved South Africa but enjoyed Tanzania even more! I dream of going back too - I would love to visit Botswana while the Okavango delta is flooding to see all the amazing wildlife they have there.
How cool that your 4 year old wants to go there!
Beautiful! The third one is my favorite. :) I went to South Africa for my honeymoon and dream of going again. I did not want to leave, lol. Last time I was in Africa, we went to Tanzania. I'm always talking of my trips, and my 4 year old 2 days ago said to me he wants to go there too, :).
