An African Wake-up Call: A Lion Roaring

This video shows a male lion roaring in the early morning hours in South Africa’s Thanda Private Game Reserve, filmed by Panthera’s partner photographer Christian Sperka. On his blog, Christian explained, “One cannot only hear the roar but one can feel the vehicle vibrating from the sound. The sound on this video is only a meek representation of the real thing.” Panthera is working across Africa to protect lions like these.
