Next morning, around 7.00 am we spotted a hyena following three zebra, which lead us to two magnificent male lions, relaxing in the early morning sun. Stephen Mills & myself agreed they were possibly brothers as they were almost identical & had a very close bond. The afternoon provided us with a very rare sight, a female Cheetah hunt from start to finish. The turn of pace was exceptional, she bought down her quarry in seconds a young Thomsons gazelle.

After watching her feed, we came across another female cheetah with two cubs, beautiful, the Serengeti certainly delivers, and the scale of the place is breathtaking.
