Masai Mara - Lion Hunt

Getting up before sunrise, warming ourselves up with cups of tea, and we're off by 6.30am. We were able to catch lions in action as they hunted and breakfasted on an eland.

It's all part of the experience.

Watching. Waiting. Are the buffalos the target? Or could it be the zebras? Something's up.

Something's definitely up. Here comes the pride.

What about the others? Zebras run, buffalos charge back for revenge.

The lions hightail in the presence of so many buffalos but the victim is already down.

Can't keep a hungry lion waiting for long.

After the lions, it's the turn of scavengers, until nothing's left.

Just another day on the plains.
