Wildlife through Grant's lens: Always expect the unexpected

When you go on safari you never vreally know what to expect. We ( rangers ) always think that it is safe to stop in certain areas for sundowners or comfort breaks. These images are proof that you must always expect the unexpected. We found these three young lions on the edge of Madikwe plains and followed them for quite a while. I then saw the vehicle in the distance and tried to radio the other guide to warn him.....but I had no response. Luckily they saw the lions early enough to get all the guests safely on the vehicle.

These young lions were so intereseted in what was in the cooler box then the people themselves. It was quite fascinating to witness the curiosity of these cats. When they approached the celebrating bunch they ignored them flat to go and investigate the contents of the cooler box

It must have been the lion lager.............:)
