To witness lions eating is one of the best moments you can have on safari, but when does it become a little scary? Well, when you can't see the lions anymore!
These events took pace while on safari to Lewa Wildlife Conservancy in Kenya, Africa.

(They do GREAT things for wildlife and the community.)

The big male lion featured in this video is wearing a radio collar. They are used at Lewa to help keep track of the lion and to aid them in various research projects. At times the lions eyes will glow. This is due to their special reflective layer called the tapetum lucidum. This helps cats see better much better than we do in the dark.
Even though we were in open jeeps as long as we stayed quiet and within the outline of the jeep we were relatively safe. So they say.
Lions needs our help!

*Thanks to my wife for helping me film while I was taking pictures and for not killing me for getting her so close to lion in the dark!
