Among the many different lion prides that i have been meticulously following the lives of for the last few years in Tsavo East National Park, one of the most regularly spotted by visitors is a pride that i have called "The Aruba Pride". 

With over fifteen members in the family, this pride's most preferred area of their territory is the vicinity of Aruba Dam which is located right opposite Ashnil Aruba Lodge. The dam holds plenty of water during the wet season while a windmill runs a borehole that supplies a small waterhole for the really dry periods. So with adequate water all year round, relatively few bushes and lots of grass about, Aruba Dam is a real favorite hangout for the lions favorite prey which includes zebra, buffalo and hartebeest. So its no coincidence that the pride can be spotted regularly or at least heard calling during the night for most days of the month.

Wild Animals Pooping

When nature calls how do different animals handle their business, every animal poops differently. A couple of videos of some wildlife going to the bathroom when nature calls. Every species had different shapes and sizes of stools which can also be used to identify them like you do with tracks in the sand. #wildlife #animals #wildkenyasafaris Watch Wildlife Videos on YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/shazaadkasmani I Edit Wildlife Photos On Luminar: https://macphun.evyy.net/KWVna Buy Wildlife Photography Gear: https://www.amazon.com/shop/shazaadkasmani Get your Wildlife Photography Shirt: https://teespring.com/stores/shazaadkasmani Signup for Photography Tips: https://www.patreon.com/shazaadkasmani Book a Wildlife Safari: https://www.wildkenyasafaris.com
