this Lady is not so relaxed
the same Lioness as the one posted for World Lion Day.
A young mother that just had her first litter of small cubs.
We found her when she was trying to find out where the main pride was. Lions are very social .
Before this shot she had been roaring to give the other adults of the pride an indication where she was.
A Lioness will wait to join the pride with her cubs until the cubs are somewhat older and more resilient. Until then she keep the cubs at a safe den site and leaves her den to hunt and to drink.
IUCN RED LIST STATUS: vulnerable
