On our second morning on Mara safari we came across two young, male lions with a fresh kill. The buffalo smelled something ferocious. Typically male lions don't hunt but these young ones had been banished from the local pride to go start their own and had cooperated on this kill. As one ate rump meat the other watched out (for something we were never really sure of). These lions stayed with this kill for the next 2 days, never leaving its side but never actually finishing it either. Alongside the lions were jackals, hyenas, and vultures in the trees waiting to swoop in when the lions were done.
