A Meal for Kings

F4, 1/180, ISO100, 300mm

Anlie and I went to the Krugersdorp Game Reserve for the weekend. It is a small privately owned game reserve in a beautiful landscape close to Johannesburg.

There were 5 lions feeding off this carcass. Watching them eat was very interesting. They do nothing peaceful. They snarl and growl at each other, but in the end they seem to eat their fill.

    In a game reserve, are they fed, or do they make their own kill?
    Great shot, I love how the one on the left seems to be full already.
