Some More from our Botswana Trip. Group of two lioness and three cubs - about three months old having a Sunday brunch........ Menu on the table was a three months old baby elephant. We did not see the kill though.

Great pictures. I had a very similar experience. Tracked 4 lioness for 3 hours, they finally got a Wild Beast, that was by itself, circled and then one of the lioness got up from the grass and walked away. The others followed her. It was bizzare to see it. I though it was a training exercise. Some what similar to Getty into a simulator.

Honestly, I find these tough to look at but it’s nature in its basic elements.

Skyking, This was our 7th safari but first in Botswana. One gets used to it after a few trips!!! Panic does start on the beginning of the very first day as you do not want to miss anything but then your nerve and calmness comes under control…
