N'waswitshaka males

[NLAL11]

I think I got a bit defensive of Orange Eyes/Eorenji, as he's one of my favourite males. Precisely because people say he's small, the less impressive male. Yet here he is, one of two survivors out of a coalition of four. And it's unlikely the bigger, more impressive male would have the territory and prides he does without his brother.

And now he's the 'not as pretty' male as well, not even worth photographing.

But this guy is a professional wildlife photographer. He doesn't follow these lions, or know their stories. He cares more about visual aesthetics. So it makes sense he would want to photograph Amahle. He is a very photogenic male. Reply
