Found this Lion in the Kruger Park a while ago. He was very old then, and we thought that he won't be around for much longer. At one stage when he yawned, we could see that he's teeth were warn away and not sharp anymore. This is a tribute to the King of the Jungle. Even though you were old, you still were able to instil deep respect and awe in our human beings. R I P

You brought tears to my eyes. I have seen to many documentaries on how these old kings are eventually brought down. But, no doubt, he has had a good life.

Life is temporary, so even a mighty and noble King has to come to his end. Wonderful tribute to his Royal Highness, Marietha.

Cornelius was here! (lol) Click HERE to see his work!
Marietha, there's this Persian poem that goes:
I used to think in my youth,
"A lion is a lion, even though old!",
Now that I'm old, I know it:
"The old is old, even though a lion!"
Very nice capture and words!

This is a lovely capture of this majestic animal. I like the side profile shot you have taken of him. Well done!
