THE KING MATING.....MASAI MARA...AUG 2008....196

            This shot  was captured in Masai Mara Aug 2008....where early in the morning we came across this young male by the dirt roadside mating with one of the lioness from his pride making sure that his genes are passed on to the future generation of lions who will be roaming on the plains of Mara... ...the muscle on his face says a lot as he gets to climax point....
