A long hot day in Nsefu driving over sandy soil through mopane forests which have been decimated by the large number of elephants. The elephants are much reduced in number due to years of poaching and many now have no tusks.
A leopardess was resting with her four month old cub - seriously cute - but photography was difficult amongst the twigs and leaves.
A large 10 year old? lion and a female were laid out with full bellies next to an adult buffalo - now dead.
This lone hyaena has a buffalo leg most probably pilfered from an earlier kill.
Hyaenas in South Luangwa do not hang about in packs but scavenge alone.
