Tanzania Safari: Day 5

Many of my clients went hot-air ballooning this morning; afterwards we were off to the heart of the central Serengeti in search of more cats. Our efforts really paid off with cats galore, including one of the largest male leopards I have ever seen. 

Another special treat was watching a mother cheetah and her three immature boys on a fresh a kill. After they finished their meal, they went for a drink in a nearby ditch, posing for us the whole way.

Total cat count thus far: 18 lions plus 10 cubs, 2 leopards, and 7 cheetahs.
