The Big Five: Lion

The lion is the king of the jungle. He has a roar that makes that point. He is easy to spot in a game reserve but that is because they are pointed out by the wardens. Once you watch them for a while you must be impressed by how lions merge in with the environment. They melt into the brush. It is as if they are chamelions that take on the color and texture of the grass surrounding them. They tend to be relaxing all the time and simply arrive after the females have made the kill to collect the meal.
