We waited a minute or two, and then we saw the lion—a male with @ heavy mane. But he was too far off, and he stood on the edge of thorn bush into which it would not have paid to follow him. So we had our first look at ‘simba,’ and that was all. “We kept on through the grass country and finally made our camp on the opposite side of a river, which we crossed.
