One evening we came across some lionesses who had spotted a couple of warthogs, which are not as far away as they appear in the picture.

Without any apparent conversation or signal from any one of them, they started off, with one going way around to come up behind the warthog they chose, and the others to lie in wait.

Moving out........

I wonder how they know which one is to be the flanker.

They did catch the warthog and each went off with a piece of it to eat.  I'm not showing it since there will be so much more gore later.

Here are some pictures of the lionesses watching and waiting for the warthog to be chased into the trap.  I love their expressions.

These are my two favorite 'lioness hunting' pictures.

This is how a lioness should look.  She knows what she's doing and nothing is going to interrupt her.  She will be successful !!!
