Photo by Beverly Joubert @beverlyjoubert | Up close to the dominant male of the infamous buffalo-hunting Tsaro pride in the Duba Plains in the Okavango. Recently the pride has largely changed its go-to prey to the thriving population of red lechwe. The numbers of these swamp-dwelling antelope have increased enormously in the last decade, since hunting ended on this concession. It's good news for these big cats because the buffalo move seasonally (and are a much more dangerous prey). But the smaller size of these antelope means that the lions need to hunt more often. Dominant male lions (being male lions) will take advantage of the lionesses' kills, if possible, rather than expend energy hunting for themselves. How do they know when a kill happens? Often it is by following vultures, whose sudden flocks are quick giveaway of a possible meal. Here the male watches vultures fly overhead before deciding whether or not to follow them. #Thisismytrophy#bigcats #okavangolions #lion
