A small herd of elephants grazing in the open grassland.
As we start to see zebras grazing our tour group's Land Cruisers stop to watch a couple of zebra.
We are informed by our tour guide that a lion is in the tall grass stalking these zebras.
As we watch the zebra graze and move about, the lion waits in the tall grass until the conditions are right and then it makes its move. The lion had predetermined the zebra it wanted and is seen here running past one zebra to chase the one it selected.
The lion catches the selected zebra and starts to bring it down.
Once our tour guides determine lion has the zebra down, we move our Land Cruisers within 10 to 15 yards of the lion. The lion continues to hold the zebra by the neck until the struggle is over.
With the zebra finished off, the lion turns to our Land Cruiser and gives us a warning as to the ownership of the meal.
We continue our game drive deeper into the grassland where we find a herd of Cape Buffalo
In a nearby river we find some hippos.
With the sun setting lower in the sky, we find a herd of Impala.
Our tour group now stops near a lone tree in the middle of the open grassland ...
Our driver tells us it's safe to get out of the Land Cruiser and walk around ...
It's our last evening together as a tour group and time to party.
