Lion male lying down, Kruger Park, South Africa Caption: Male lion (Panthera leo) with full belly lying in winter grass, the remains of a buffalo kill between his front paws, Kruger National Park, South Africa. Photo: © Scotch Macaskill.

Additional Info: This handsome male lion was part of a pride that had earlier killed a buffalo. Although he'd eaten till his belly was full, he refused to give up a few remains of the buffalo lying between his front paws. Other pride members, including another large male, who approached were quickly warned off with a growl and a snarl.

Camera Equipment: The photograph was taken with a Canon EOS Elan film camera and Canon EOS 80-200mm F2.8 lens, using slide film scanned on a Nikon Coolscan V scanner.
