Yesterday was a spectacular day and night with the Royal Pride.

We located them at dawn out on the Marah Plains, all 5 lying together, incredibly playful and affectionate, especially  Mandla with his sons. Amazing to see 3 huge males so loving to each other. But the pride was clearly on a mission, with Zihra leading the 5 across the plains mid morning and settling at a good ambush position near the Marah River crossing.
