Lions (Panthera leo) are unusual among cats because of their tendency to live in groups (called prides). A pride usually consists of two to 12 adult females and their cubs. Usually all the females are related.

Radio collars on lions Dec 13 2007

In several of our recent lion video clips from the Okavango Delta (for example, Risky brushes with lions, Lion cubs lead the way), you will have noticed that some of the lionesses have collars around their necks. These are radio transmitter collars used by biologists running a lion research project here in Botswana.

Wildlife news from around the world

Kenyan park restocked with game Aug 22 2007

Kenya’s Meru National Park, ravaged by poachers in the 1970s, is nearing the completion of an ambitious restocking programme which has seen the relocation of elephants, rhinos and zebras, among other species.

The 870km square (541mi square) reserve in the Eastern Province of the East African country is perhaps best known for the work of conservationists Joy and George Adamson. Joy Adamson’s 1960 classic Born Free, about an orphaned lion cub, was based on her experiences in Meru. The park is now home to the rare black rhino, and Grevy’’s zebra.
