Lions up a tree


Just lion around! This is the bizarre moment an entire pride of lions decided to take a kip - 15 feet up a tree At least 15 of the beasts were caught on camera lounging on the branches of a sturdy tree in Central Serengeti, Tanzania.

But while it might look as though they were using the vantage point to seek out prey, photographer Bobby-Jo Clow from Dubbo, Australia, revealed the laid back pride were actually trying to escape flies living in the long grass. Bobby-Jo, 32, said: I was leading a photographic safari in the Serengeti and on our first official day in the park we came across this incredible sighting. (Caters News)
