God put me on earth to accomplish a certain amount of things. Right now I'm so far behind that I'll never die.

In October 2012 we got close-up lions at an eland kill at Auchter:

The clean-up team was on standby.

The jackals were argueing about who would get to the remains of the kill first.

The next morning the lions had gone, but the BBJs and vultures fed on the remains of the eland kill.
