So peaceful watching the two cubs wrestle, with mum Oudrika aware and chilling. Photographed at Port Lympne, Kent, UK
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.

That woman of the grooming salon (Bling Bling), pulled out all my old hair again today. I don't like that at all, especially not when she lifts all the hair on the back of my neck! That lion face is pretty cool, though.
Of course Beethoven, I know you don't like all that fiddling with your hair, but now you're a real forest cat again (with a loin face ;-) (sorry Beety)
Hugs by me and my little lion: Beethoven

This lion was moving too close, nearly filled my camera’s viewfinder. It was back-off time.

This Stellar Sea Lion is keeping an eye on me but is otherwise not afraid and continues to swim in the area looking for salmon to eat.
Taken 16 September 2019 at Valdez, Alaska.
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.
