Asiatic Female Lion And Cub By Marius Coetzee

Contrary to what many people think, Lions aren’t restricted to Africa alone. India, in fact, plays host to an entirely different sub-species of this magnificent cat, which goes by the name of the Asiatic (or Indian) Lion. ORYX leader Marius Coetzee photographed this mother and her very young cub in Gir National Park, which happens to host one of their last strongholds, with only around 400 of these animals left in the wild.
