Kevin Robertson showed me these photos when we were at the Dallas Safari Club in January.

I thought his wife had taken them.

Sad end for the calf but life for the lions.

Interesting photos. An immature bull separated from and not protected by the herd.

Posted one of these photos on the NE FB page and some of the goofs there think it must be photoshopped ...

A mighty small elephant to have visible tusks.

Of course no one would post a photoshopped photo on the Internet!
