The Lion and Lioness at the park have to work for their food, scaling 8 m high telegraph poles for their feed. This keeps them fit and trains the muscles for the explosive movements required in the wild.
2/18/12 - The lion area at the Detroit Zoo has changed (for the better) since the last time that I was there. They expanded it and put up glass walls (instead of having a moat and fence). The result is that the lions are much closer to you than they ever were before. Today, three lions were sleeping right next to the glass wall. This guy was nice enough to look up and give me a close up picture.
Hyenas waited for this male lion to finish his wildebeest. It was a tense scene between the lion and the hyenas. When the lion finally left, the hyenas fought viciously for the scraps. The jackal wasn't afraid of either. It stole from the lion and continued to eat as the hyenas fought among themselves. Such a confident little dog.
Little Lion
Robins take leave on this hots summer day
Squirrels tremble and quickly dash away
Because a small lion is on the prowl
Cunning and strong enough to kill an owl
Crickets and mice alike must beware
For he can smell your feat in the air
Creeping on his belly he searches for prey
A new victim on this hot summer day
