Ngutuni Sanctuary Lion Feeding On Warthog

Lion at Ngutuni Sanctuary with a Warthog Kill

Starting off the early morning safari in Ngutuni Sanctuary at 6:30am, we were about 5 minutes into the safari and were fortunate to find this male lion by the side of the road. He had just killed a large warthog. Obviously very chuffed with his kill, he sat proudly next to it for a while and then had the busy task of trying to keep away a pair of jackals from his hard earned meal. 

The drama of the between the lion and jackals was indeed very entertaining and about 2 hours later, the lion actually attempted to hunt another pair of warthogs that unsuspectingly wandered unawares towards the lion.
