Reporting Date: 01.01.2013
Peter on the game drive came across a pride of lions out of which two were on their Honeymoon. Seven cubs were playing and at some point were trying to imitate their father. They decided to drive very close to them, but were not bothered with their presence.
While on their way back to the camp they came across a big Male Cheetah on a termite mounds.
