When you are in Lion country it certainly lends an edge to your safari. And there is no better place in the world to see them than in the Ngorongoro Crator in Tanzania. It has the highest concentration of large predators on Earth.This guy was not really alone, he was with his brother. They were both fit and healthy and showed none of the battle scars of older males. They were young pretenders to the throne and for the time being they were biding their time. The keen eyed amongst you might have noticed that the setting is unlike the crator. This is because I added the acacia trees later on as an after-thought . http://flic.kr/p/7gBwuc
