Talamati lionesses make a kill

On a hot afternoon two Talamati females and the cubs were huddled in the shade in an open area. The cubs were clearly hungry and hassling the adult female for food. Something caught her attention in the distance. With ears perked she immediately sprung into hunting mode. The cubs remained behind playing and we followed the adult females. We could not see what had spiked their interest, but we followed from a distance as they stalked closer with intent, the pair had stalked to within metres of a large warthog. With no hesitation they pounced and brought the warthog down. The two females fed and eventually called the cubs in to feed. A much needed and well-deserved meal that lasted two days.
