Pride of lions feast on a downed giraffe
The Ultimate Big Breakfast: Lion Cubs Feast on Giraffe
Even pouring rain couldn't put this hungry pride of lions off their catch - an adult male giraffe.
These stunning images show the family enjoying the spoils of an unusually successful hunt in Kenya's Masai Mara.
British wildlife photographer and safari guide Paul Goldstein says he was kept awake most of the night from the noise of the lions killing then fighting over the prey.
Paul, from Wimbledon, explains: "This was an adult bull giraffe, it must have been sick or wounded otherwise this particular pride, which I have spent many months with, would never have taken him down.
"However it proved a huge larder for many days and, as it was quite cool, the meat did not go off too quickly.
"Watching the hierarchy on the dinner table was fascinating although with such a large feast the elders were not as robust as they normally are with the cubs."
Giraffes are not easy prey for lions because of their height which makes them difficult to bring down. Lions kill by grasping the throat of their prey and suffocating it, and they cannot easily reach the throat of a giraffe whilst it is standing up.
However, by working together lions can hunt and kill adult giraffes. They will often chase them onto rocky ground, where they cannot keep their balance easily, hoping to trip them up.
At other times they simply surround the giraffe and repeatedly attack it as a group until it falls, when they can seize its throat.
Giraffes also have a very powerful kick that can kill a lion so lions prefer to hunt easier prey such as antelope and zebra.

Nepal Marks “Paddy Day” Celebrating Rice And Rituals
A Nepali farmer transplants paddy saplings in a field on the outskirts of Lalitpur District, Nepal, on June 29, 2025, as the nation marks ''National Paddy Day,'' celebrating rice and rituals. Soaking in mud and water, farmers continuously work in the field, leveling the mud to ensure an even level and continuous flow of water, creating a favorable topography for the paddy saplings to grow. The plantation of paddy saplings in the field, known as ''Ropain,'' holds high significance for farmers in Nepal, which is primarily dominant during the monsoon season that starts in June and lasts for four months. While planting the saplings, farmers run behind each other, smearing mud on faces and splashing muddy water as a means of fun. These sorts of activities are highly visible in the Himalayan nation on the 15th of Ashar, which has been marked as National Paddy Day since 2005, previously indicating the start of the cultivation season with the onset of the monsoon. As farmers gather, a feast is thrown, which includes beaten rice, curd, pickle, and homemade brew. Because of this long-standing tradition of having victuals, Ashar-15 is also known as ''Dahi (Curd)-Chiura (Beaten-rice)'' eating day. (Photo by Subaas Shrestha/NurPhoto) -

The plantation of paddy saplings in the field, known as ''Ropain,'' holds high significance for farmers in Nepal, primarily during the monsoon season, which starts in June and lasts for four months. While planting the saplings, farmers run behind each other, smearing mud on faces and splashing muddy water as a means of fun. These activities are prominent in the Himalayan nation on the 15th of Ashar, marked as National Paddy Day since 2005, which was earlier marked as the day to indicate the start of the cultivation season with the onset of the monsoon. As farmers gather, a feast is thrown, which includes beaten rice, curd, pickle, and homemade brew. Because of this long-standing tradition of having victuals, Ashar-15 is also known as ''Dahi (Curd)-Chiura (Beaten-rice)'' eating day. (Photo by Subaas Shrestha/NurPhoto) -
