Caption: Pair of male lions (Panthera leo) in long winter grass, their manes
blowing in the wind, Kruger National Park, South Africa. Photo: © Scotch Macaskill.
Additional Info: This pair of male lions - possibly brothers - were part of a pride that
had earlier killed and fed on a buffalo in South Africa's Kruger National Park. It was a cloudy day with a
strong breeze blowing, as can be seen by the lions' windswept manes.
Kruger Park, South Africa's premier wildlife and nature reserve, covers nearly 2 million hectares and is
is home to an impressive diversity of flora and fauna, including
507 different birds and 147 types of mammal. As such it offers a wildlife experience that ranks with the best in Africa.
Camera: The photograph was taken with a Canon EOS Elan film camera and Canon EOS 300mm F4 lens,
using slide film scanned on a Nikon Coolscan V scanner.
