A Pride of Lions
On a lovely August morning we had the privilege of witnessing an extraordinary scene, twenty lions drinking together in harmony.
After spending the night in proximity we hurried back to the spot where we had seen them last, only to discover their absence. Disappointment lingered but within half an hour we saw them coming out of the reeds and making their way to the water.
The view was captivating. The lions made their way to the river, side by side. The scene became even more enchanting with the arrival of the last lion cub, bringing the total to twenty. It was a stunning showcase of natures splendor.

Lions are creatures that form groups called prides which usually include female relatives and some males.
A specific pride with a bond among five males is well suited, for thriving in the wilderness. Watching how they interact offers valuable understanding of their relationships and actions.
