Breathtaking portraits of majestic feline predator on World Lion Day

The killing of Cecil the Lion has compelled the world to re-consider protection and conservation of lion habitats. Also, wildlife photographers are now inclined to highlight the glory of lions. To honor this majestic animal on the World Lion Day, we have some amazing pictures depicting lions in their natural habitat, hunting, playing, resting, and fooling around. We hope, you’ll love the treat.
