I spent many hours looking at this amazing lion and have taken tons of pictures of him. This wasn't my favorite shot, but my last. He died Tuesday. He was 14 years old and I'll miss him. I like to think he's running free now.
This made me cry yesterday when i saw it on the news! He was my favorite at the zoo, and I have a photo of him framed that hangs in my house. I am just so saddened by his death. Great shot of him. He will be truly missed.
@pammerritt Pam, I went a few days before Christmas and got this shot and a few others. I did get to listen to him roar that day. I went back a few days later and the lions weren't out at all. Then Tuesday I seen this on the news. I was heartbroken too.
