Male lions' powerful roar leave safari tourists in awe
The close-up video shows two male lions, delivering a loud and powerful roaring performance close to a group of safari tourists. A safari experience that left everyone in awe and stunned. The African lion, also known as the king of the beasts, is the continents biggest cat and rules the African landscape as the top predator. The lion is on top of the Big five animal list and by far one of the most popular animals to try and find during a safari in the African wild. Should you be lucky enough to find a lion in the wild, it will always be an experience to remember. Occasionally, a lucky few safari goers might get the rare opportunity to witness lions performing their loud and powerful roar, mostly at night. The roar of a lion is one of the most iconic sounds in Africa. This video shows the incredible occasion of two beautiful male lions roaring like there was no tomorrow, in broad daylight, which is very uncommon. After finding these two male lions just relaxing not too far from the road, they suddenly started their roaring. Lions roar to signal territoriality and to locate distant pride members. The roar of a lion can be heard as far as eight kilometres away at night. With a vehicle full of safari guests, we were parked away a mere twenty meters from the two roaring lions. We could literally feel the powerful vibrations going through our bodies as these two male lions roared. With the deep base rumbling right through your stomach, the powerful roaring sounds leave you with fear, fascination, and absolute total respect. When the king speaks, everybody listens. I had to take my camera and film the expressions of those safari guests on my vehicle. For some it was their very first safari. It was priceless to see how much in awe everyone was, fortunate enough to have experienced such a rare and incredible occasion in the African wild. To see the king of the African bush, performing one of the continent’s most iconic wildlife sounds is a safari experience that will be very hard to beat.
