TREE CLIMBING LIONS ALSO TAKE ON KILLS

It was hard to belief but it has happened. This evening we were on a game drive and came across two lionesses in the tree near the lodge. One of the lionesses was curiously looking around but when we looked we didn't see anything. Then we left to see the three leopards that we saw earlier (the mother with two cubs).

On our way back we saw a lioness who had just climbed the tree with a bushpig kill. It was really interesting because it was my first time to seen that. The lioness was by her self even when we went for the night drive still with her meal that is almost finished. It was a lucky day for us since morning as we were looking for leopard and we got three! Also whilst out on a night drive we found mating leopard!

Thanks to Helen and Adam for the photos.

What a day?
