Freedom of speech with another 'Rosity ROAR! by busi2ness
Open full image in new tabDescription
Thank you for all the comments and views on the Barbary Lion.
Reading through the comments I wish I could take all of you longing to share in such a photo shoot with me on a wild Safari where these animals roam (fairly) free and where you are in such close proximity that their roars make your lungs reverberate, tasting Africa in your mouth!
This is the lioness of the breeding pair. That yawn betrays the late nights taking its toll, LOL!
No other boring facts about lions today, I hope you enjoy...

Wow! "Queen o' the Beasts," too! Hey Piet, I'd love to come down to S.A. and get up close with the animals. My only worry is that this lady or her boyfriend might want a "taste of Texas" in their mouths!

A very young and pretty lady !!!! Look at her tooth !!!! You could make a fantastic publicity for a toothpaste with this one, lol ! She's the real "King"... not the male ! lol ! This serie is really very impressive, and to see them in this way (I hope they are wild ?????) it's gorgious and touching. Thank you Piet !!!! Have a very nice day my friend. Xoxoxo

My daughter (Yukonjak) told me about the wonderful pictures you have rendered of the various animals native to S.Af. Your descriptions add to the render, to learn even more about them. In this part of the world, we see only small wild animals; and need to read "dull" books to get the many facts you put into short descriptions of your native animals. We can occasionally see wild deer in the local forests, but most of the "unfriendly" animals are small, and sometimes undesirable to get near (such as skunks). We do see brown and black bears in the northern part of our state, but not near our residential area. Since Renderosity changed their site, I had been unable to see your wonderful pictures. I'm so pleased to again see your pictures and read your comments about the many animals that are seen around here only in zoos. Keep up the wonderful work

frowns at kitty lion Oi! Didn't your Momma teach you to put your claw in front of your whiskers before you yawn?!? closes kittylion's jaw and climbs on his back for a cuddle session giggle Piet, great shot man! I love these kitties! Wanted one for my birthday, but hubby doesn't think it's such a good idea wink wink
