The Lion King: A Wildlife Photo Essay from Kenya

Seeing the lion in the wild is a sensational feeling and probably stands as one of the best moments for a wildlife enthusiast. I am one such enthusiast too and I got to see 33 lions + lionesses from a total of 8 game drives at the Maasai Mara Game Reserve in East Africa’s Kenya.

Here are some of those spectacular moments (lions only). Hope you enjoy them!!
