Lioness

I’ve been trying not to over load you with photos from our South Africa trip.  As I’ve said numerous times, MJ would be happy with one safari animal photo after another.  So today’s post should make her happy… Will it make the rest of you happy???  Its doubtful.

We found this Lion during one of our safaris.  She was actually with another female lion.  They walked right towards us and cross the road in front of us (maybe 10 feet away).  A few minutes later, we watched them cross paths with a few Cape Buffalo, who turned and forced the Lions to keep going.  I thought the Lions might win that encounter, but I was wrong.  Apparently, a few of the Cape Buffalo can easily fight off the Lions.  As you can tell from the big scar on her leg, she’s been in some fights before.
