Lions Nap On Road During Quarantine In South Africa

https://www.unilad.co.uk/animals/lio...-south-africa/



Taking advantage of the lockdown, this pride of lions used the road in Kruger National Park as a sleeping spot, safe in the knowledge no one was going to be driving down it anytime soon.

The sweet pictures were taken by park ranger Richard Sowry on Wednesday, April 15, while the park was closed. Kruger National Park, among several others in South Africa, has been shut since March 25 in light of recent events.

It is so lovely to see them relaxed like that, without the fear of man.
