I took this picture this evening with a very long lens at failing light. The image quality is not great, but the subject is.
Nine most impressive Kudu bulls at the edge of the savanna!

After a mating session this morning some of our Lions gave a short roaring concert at Thanda Safari.

This Lioness was using her carnassials to cut pieces out of her Zebra kill. As she did so she kept an eye on us watching her.

Sometimes herbivores rather keep an eye on carnivores than running away from them. This evening a dazzle of Burchell’s Zebras were keeping an eye on our two dominant male Lions for quite a while before moving off in the opposite directions.
The Zebras never came close enough to trigger the Lions’ hunting/killing instinct, and as these larger cats were still full from a recent kill they were putting no effort into active hunting at this time.

I was quite glad I was in my vehicle when this Cape Buffalo Bull appeared from nowhere as I was taking some bird pictures at a waterhole. He snorted a bit and shook his head at me, so I backed off a bit, and he was happy to settle again in the mud.
