Oldest Lion In Kenya Stuns In Beautiful Photos (7 Pics)

Morani, 14, recently took the title of oldest lion in natural reserve Maasai Mara. Pictures were captured by professional wildlife photographer Leighton Lum. He was on a photography workshop in Kenya, East Africa, when he took photos.

"He is a lone male who has been pushed out of the pride by younger, stronger males which is a natural process in lions as the strongest males will control the pride. "In general, adult male lions are lazy by nature and can sleep for 20 hours a day. "We spotted him in the morning, then went back at the very end of the day only to find him no more than 15 feet from where we left him. "Even when he does get up and sit down, it is a rather slow process."
