Hunting in the Crater! - a photo on Flickriver

            The Ngorongoro Conservation Area is a protected area and a World Heritage Site located in the Crater Highlands area of Tanzania. The area is named after Ngorongoro Crater, a large volcanic caldera within the area. 
The Ngorongoro Conservation Area has a healthy resident population of most species of wildlife. 
The annual ungulate migration passes through the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, with 1.7 million wildebeest, 260,000 zebra, and 470,000 gazelles moving south into the area in December and moving north in June. This movement changes seasonally with the rains, but the migration traverses almost the entire plains in search of food.

This beautiful Lioness was photographed on the hunt on a late evening game drive inside the Ngorongoro Crater, Tanzania.
