2017 Wildlife Photo Contest

Lion, Eastern part, Uganda
Afternoon Nap

Species: Lion | Location: Eastern part, Uganda

In the eastern part of Uganda, the lions climb up into large fig trees to nap in the shade. We were able to park just underneath the tree and photograph the many lions perched in the branches.
