Sopa lion pride over the last couple of month has been very entertaining to our visitors into maasai mara reserve. The last episode was the breathtaking fight between them and the buffaloes. The pride had gone a number of days without success but fate finally sided with them. Ferdinand and his guest were on an half day game drive found the remains of what was part of buffalo team that was chasing away the mighty king of the jungle. They spend sometime watching the lions reduce the buffalo carcass to nothing but a sekeleton.
