That poor lion had to juggle between those cars just to get to her cubs

P.S. - We were about 15 min late for Satara camp gate because of this lion chaos, we had cars speeding past us definitly not within the speed limit 0*\

Pic taken from Satara camp entrance gate, 23 September 2012

Huge buffalo herd wanted to cross the road infront of Satara camp. Huge traffic jam resulted in the buffalo becoming nervous and they stampeded across the road, some tourists alerted a Satara ranger and he quickly brought the situation under control
