Lioness drinking

Female lion (Panthera leo) drinking from a pool. Lions are social cats that live in groups (prides) comprising several females, adolescents and young and one or two males. Females (lionesses) perform most of a prides hunting, which occurs both at night and by day. They hunt co-operatively, with several females encircling the prey before making the kill. Prey includes antelopes, zebra and smaller mammals. Lions are found throughout sub- Saharan Africa and parts of Asia. Photographed in the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, which lies in both Botswana and South Africa

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a powerful and majestic lioness as she quenches her thirst from a serene pool. The female lion, known for her grace and agility, is an integral part of a pride - a social group consisting of several females, adolescents, young cubs, and one or two dominant males. In this mesmerizing image, we witness the lioness in her natural habitat within the vast landscapes of sub-Saharan Africa and parts of Asia. With their cooperative hunting techniques, these fierce predators encircle their prey before making a decisive kill. Antelopes, zebras, and smaller mammals fall victim to their strategic prowess. The Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park serves as the backdrop for this stunning photograph. Spanning across both Botswana and South Africa, this protected area provides an ideal sanctuary for diverse wildlife species to thrive undisturbed. As we gaze upon this remarkable moment frozen in time by Science Photo Library's lens, we are reminded of nature's raw beauty and its delicate balance between predator and prey. This image encapsulates the untamed spirit that resides within these feline creatures - symbols of strength and resilience in the animal kingdom. Let us cherish this extraordinary glimpse into the world of African wildlife – where water becomes not only a source of sustenance but also a reflection of life's intricate tapestry woven by Mother Nature herself.
