21st Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Tree Climbing Lions Perched Near Grazing Zebras in Tanzania
Only Tanzania’s Tarangire National Park and a nearby area, as well as a location in Uganda, have tree climbing lions. We watched this pair for an hour, hoping they would chase the zebras. While there was no chase, the lions were still special to watch.
