Lions on morning stroll: Video

Yesterday I had reports of lions at Nduna and although I found a few tracks, the lions remained elusive. So first thing this morning I headed out that way. I picked up lion tracks near Bandama heading north and eventually found 7 members of the Nduna pride back up near Nduna dam resting.

Rough night?
Something disturbed their rest and nervously they tried to slink away.
Following after them they encountered an impala herd but soon their cover was blown and the pride moved on.

Strolling
Manyari was the only one who seemed keen to keep going while the youngsters kept lying up in any shade they could find hoping Manyari would get the message.

Comfortable
Eventually they all rested up in the shade of an Ilala palm.

Chilled out
I’ll be back on their trail this evening as we go into night shift mode.

  • I liked this clip very much. The film with your comments and the appropriate music in the background all were quite effective. I ran the clip twice. Is the music especially composed for your filming or do you use other sources such as music readily available on the market? Just interested as your choice of music accompanyment is very good.

  • I have about 20 different cues i use which is from music readily available on the market. This one worked really well today.
