Short story about tourists in Tanzania
Arrival early in the morning in the crater, several lions finishing an overnight kill. Within 20 minutes about 10 cars arrived, 10 minutes later the lions went away, tourists doing the same. We stayed at the carcass for another 90 Minutes seeing first the vultures coming in (yesterday's picture)chased away by the Common Jackals, Common Jackals fighting each other (picture), Black backed Jackals turning up, and finally Hyenas. All this was missed by the other 10 cars who obviously were only interested in the big five. Poor tourists!

Hola Tom.- Una foto de exelente historia de la vida al natural. Me agrada tu nota.
Luis52.

I like very much those images that shot directly at animals action and this is one of them. I like composition and the combination of the main focused subject and the other jackal as a complement and explanation.
Good!

Nice action shot.
