The prey, an impala, was actually caught by the mother cheetah I posted a few days ago.
This lion we were watching was attracted by the screaming of the antelope and immediatly started walking towards the place of the hunt.
We followed the guy and saw the cheetah first, so we parked the jeep between both cats but, of course, the lion was not intimidated by our presence and stoled the prey at once.

It must be amazing being so close to the action.
He looks so happy and is satisfied with fresh meat.
Great shot.
So did this lion scare off the impala?
Amazing shot of the King!
