They had a show on by the time we got to the Sea Lion pool and it was very crowded. Luckily I had my telephoto lens, so I did manage to get this shot.
An adult Mountain Lion (Puma concolor) rests in the woods on the edge of a rocky ledge at the entrance of Glendale Cove off Knight Inlet on the west coast of Canada.
We were on a wildlife tour, primarily for Grizzly Bear, with Tide Rip Grizzly Tours out of Telegraph Cove on the northeast tip of Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada.
It is a boat tour which holds about 10 people and you are out for most of the day. If I remember, it is about 90 minutes travel to Glendale Cove but you never know what you may encounter. In this case, it was their first Mountain Lion observation and we had about 5 minutes as it patiently observed us and the surrounding area before disappearing into the woods.
It is something I will never forget, thankfully with some photos to remind me of that once in a lifetime observation.

Lions are the only cats that live in groups. Lions are the second largest cat on Earth (after Siberian Tiger).
It was a pleasant 4-eye meeting (early morning, Engelhard Dam Road). He gave me few seconds to take some photos and then suddenly started roaring. At first I was a little bit in panic, but after few seconds I unerstood that this was not for me, he was calling his friends.

Galapagos Sea Lions love to hang out along the beaches and shallow accesses to the ocean. This little one opened his eye for one brief click of my camera before nodding back to sleep.
Probably my best lion picture from the whole trip.

Driving north on the Glenn Highway towards Lions Head and the Chugach Mountains in the distance.
Lions Head is an iconic Alaskan landmark in the Matanuska Valley rising 1000 feet above the Matanuska river. Wish I'd had time, has a good trail to the top.
Have a wonderful weekend!
Satara Lion.
Hope you will enjoy this photo.

La qualité est mauvaise mais je poste la photo quand même : c'est en effet la première fois que j'ai pu voir vraiment le lion d'Asie (un couple au Parc des félins) autrement que loin et affalé comme une carpette.
LION D'ASIE :
Son habitat naturel s'étendait autrefois sur tout le sous-continent indien et il était possible de le trouver de la Syrie à l'Inde orientale. À cause de la chasse et de la destruction de son habitat, il avait pratiquement disparu du continent au XXe siècle. Le lion d'Asie est en grand danger d'extinction. Les derniers spécimens sauvages, environ 500 seulement, se trouvent en Inde, dans la forêt de Gir. Des bergers maldharis introduisent leur troupeau dans le parc national, accroissant le risque de prélèvement de leur bétail par les lions. Bien qu'indemnisés par l'état indien, les tensions sont fortes et certains éleveurs laissent du bétail empoisonné à destination des lions. Le 12 septembre 2018, cinq lions de la forêt de Gir sont morts de la maladie de Carré, une souche est-africaine ayant déjà décimé un tiers des populations de lions africaines. Des tirs de vaccins contre cette maladie sont la seule mesure de protection efficace.
The lion is another one of the amazing sand sculptures which add additional interest to the park at the palace of Ludwigsburg right now. In reality he sits in front of a restaurant which doesn't make a pretty background. When I saw him I immediately imagined him on a rock high above the plains of the Serengeti with only the sky above him and this is the reason why I chose this background for him.
World Lion Day - 10/08/19. This photo was taken during our visit to the Kgalagadi Transfrontier National Park in 2016. I dream of visiting again one day. We had the privilege of watching this male black maned lion and a female lion on several occasions on the same day.
The Lions are iconic twin peaks on Vancouver's North Shore Mountains, visible across Metro Vancouver, resembling seated lions and named by settlers after London's Trafalgar Square statues. They include the higher West Lion (around 1646m) and East Lion (around 1606m), offering challenging hikes, particularly the West Lion via the popular Binkert Trail from Lions Bay, with the East Lion requiring advanced mountaineering skills. The peaks are a significant local landmark, inspiring the Lions Gate Bridge and the BC Lions CFL team.

One of the most entertaining things about self-driving safaris is that once you're parked and quiet, the animals ignore you and just go about their business. This lion (and the others) walked so close to our vehicle a couple times that we rolled up the windows (just in case).
