Erik Schlogl replied
Interestingly, in Kruger National Park some of the animals actually use the roads to get around – and this lion was standing right next to the road and completely ignored the vehicles!

Great shot! It still is a youngster, isn’t it?
I love the toning, he nearly blends in the background!!
Erik Schlogl replied
I’m no expert on this, but I was told that this was the dominant male in that part of the Kruger National Park…
