Photo by @ladzinski | “The face of a warrior. This lion is 11 years old, battle worn and still holding strong. He’s held a solitary pride on the fringe of Kruger National Park for the last 5 years. It’s a place rich with lions meaning he’s faced countless battles to retain his Royal position as king of his territory. For a lone male to accomplish this is no easy task and in his time he’s reared dozens upon dozens of cubs. His face is a badge of honor in the lion world, hieroglyphs displaying a history of violent life at the top of the food chain."⠀ ⠀ Via Nat Geo and ladzinski.

Happy World Lion Day! The embodiment of power and courage, lions are unique to other members of the large cat family. Lions are the only big cats that have manes, tufted tails, and live in social groups. Each member of the pride plays a role, with lionesses hunting and males guarding territory. (source)
