Walking With Lions

“This is the story of a spring in a remote corner of the Zambezi Valley in northern Zimbabwe – it attracts thousands of thirst-driven animals to slake their thirst, but it is surrounded by a pride of lions...... ” During northern Zimbabwe’s eight-month dry season, temperatures can reach 115 degrees Fahrenheit (46 Celsius).
