They hardly look like the apex predators they are in such situations.

They say that two’s company but three’s a crowd.
He obviously didn’t get the script, because he soon was off to join the others

Only problem was that once he joined his ladies, they put him on ignore

We eventually left the lions once they seemed settled for the day and continued on over the dune road.

After a while we saw a couple of cars stopped on the side of the road. We arrived just in time to see a honey badger running off up the dune and disappearing in the grass. We had just missed it on the side of the road.


We did get a few proof pics though.

The rest of the drive was uneventful, barring seeing the remnants of Corrine’s breakfast from the previous day

After a long day in the car we decided to relax in camp that evening.
