bucket list? book your trip now!
The African lion is aptly named the king of beasts and as such is Africa’s most iconic wildlife specie. Revered worldwide for their powerful and proud demeanor, lions are seen as symbols of courage, strength and majesty. Although lions are renowned for spending large parts of the day sleeping, its when they become active in the evening to early morning time that is a highlight for any safari! Female lionesses are the primary hunters, while males often form coalitions with other males to defend the pride’s territory. Interaction between lions is always great value to watch.
