The Smiling Lion

This adult male lion appears to be smiling. Maybe it's because he had a good dream. He and his two brothers had just awakened from an afternoon nap to be well rested for a night of hunting. 

My group found the brothers early the following morning, several miles awy, finishing off the carcass of a wildebeest they had killed during the night. 

The action happened in Tanzania.
