Kasanga is a lion rescued from a circus and is being cared for by the Big Cat Sanctuary in the UK

Taken at the Big Cat Sanctuary in Kent, UK which is a Big Cat conservation and breeding centre dedicated to ensuring the future of these magnificent creatures. Kasanga is the most perfect photographic subject as he thrives on the attention and follows you around the enclosure, keen to show is grander! This photograph was taken at a distance of 4m with a 100mm lens – there was a safety fence between us!
This is a gorgeous black and white shot! Great job!
