Lion resting near Zebras.
It does not always occur that zebras would be a bit closer to where the lions are resting but they would do this when they know that the kings are not bothered with them. This would happen when the kings are contented after a heavy meal. This lion was on this kind of state when ranger Kokan and his guests found him resting in the shade of an acacia tree. Once the prey is aware that the predators are not bothered, they will not move far but graze while keeping watch
