9 lions This was a wonderful sight at our camp's watering hole.  Usually visited during the day by wildebeest, zebra, giraffe and baboons, you can see at night it's a whole different story.

The lion is one of the five big cats in the genus "Panthera" and a member of the family Felidae. The commonly used term African lion collectively denotes the several subspecies found in Africa. With some males exceeding 250 kg in weight, it is the second-largest living cat after the tiger.
