Sleeping Lion Cub Photograph

This stun­ning pho­to­graph of the lion tak­ing a nap was sent to us by Trevor Harrison. According to the Wikipedia entry on the Lion, lions spend much of their time rest­ing and are inact­ive for about 20 hours per day. Although lions can be act­ive at any time, their activ­ity ... gen­er­ally peaks after dusk with a period of social­iz­ing and groom­ing. They spend an aver­age of two hours a day walk­ing and 50 minutes eat­ing — and the rest laz­ing around and sleeping!
