Obusayo …

… means ‘the one who rules’ in isiZulu. Thanda Safari’s dominant male Lion ‘rules’ all the prides on the reserve. Well, at least as far as the leading ladies let him.

I took this picture last Tuesday as he was tracking the Intibane Pride on the western part of the reserve. But one thing is certain: He is a handsome chap!
