This image was captured in 2001, during a trip that Liza and I took to eastern and central Africa. The Serengeti plains were quite lush at the time, due to the wet season only just having passed. This young male lion was looking quite healthy, and gave us a yawn as I took the shot. This is not the typical look of a lion in Africa, as most are pretty ragged with scruffy mane’s and lots of scaring around their faces from fighting.
