‘’JUST MARRIED’’
It was in the strong heat of the day in the afternoon when we came across these two young lions that were mating. Because they were in their early years of life with the male having short blonde hairs, they looked as if they were just starting a new pride, hence the reason why our guests gave them the name ‘’Just married’’. Usually male lions leave the original pride at about the age of two years to start establishing their own pride. During this time, they would move from place to place in search of existing prides to conquer. This two lions were not bothered by the heat of the day as they were busy enjoying their honey-moon.
