The San Diego Safari Park Lion Camp

 


Lion ImageOne of San Diego's Premier Treasures is it's Safari Park. It is located in Escondido and is made up of 44 acres of land. The land was well utilized in that it gives opportunity for the animals to live in an environment similar but enhanced to what they would be used to in the wild. 

In June of this year, the San Diego Safari Lion Camp enjoyed the birth of 4 new lion cubs. 

In the wild , Lions when not seeking out their next meal, mostly just lie around. At Safari Park, the Lion Camp keepers try to keep the Lions entertained and lively with great new toys and experiences to keep them physically active and exercised. 

The Lion Camp environment is exceptional and provides a very good quality of life for these magnificent felines. I love this part of the park and often see many photographers trying for that one in a million lion portrait. Me too!

Thank You all for dropping by. I had taken this photo almost two years ago and when the weather breaks ( today is 101 degrees and hot! ), I will be going back on a Photography Safari and hope to get that one in a million shot that I have been seeking in the Lion Camp for several years. This real estate forum is probably not the place for me to post so many of my animal photos that I take, but they so fascinate me that I always feel compelled to share them.
