Future Kings
Two lion cubs rest on a granite outcrop in the Serengeti, Tanzania, a landscape famous for its expansive plains and rocky kopjes that serve as lookouts and shelters for predators. These cubs, lounge comfortably on the warm stone, framed by the rough texture of the rocks and the deep shadows of their environment. The scene highlights the tranquil side of life for young lions, soon to inherit the harsh realities of survival in the African savannah.
