It was a waiting game for me to photograph this young male Kalahari Lion<br />

(Panthera leo bleyenberghi) at a watering hole in the Kgalagadi Transfrontier<br />

Park on a recent trip.<br />

Many hours waiting for lions to come and drink at the waterhole finally paid off<br />

when this young male (I heard him long before I saw him) walked out of the<br />

bush, drank in front of me and walked off again. It was all over in a matter of<br />

minutes....<br />

- South Africa<br />

Fact: Wiki advises subspecies of lions, provided by Haas et al. (2005), suggests<br />

that lions in the Kalahari Region are of two subspecies: Panthera leo krugeri<br />

and Panthera leo bleyenberghi.<br />
