Generally a tawny yellow, lions, like other species, tend to be lighter in color in hot, arid areas and darker in animal areas phptographs of dense vegetation. Mature male lions are unique among animal the cat species for the phptographs thick mane of brown or black hair that encircles animal the head and neck. The tails of lions end in a horny spine covered with a tuft of hair. Lions are found in savannas, grasslands, dense bush and woodlands. Females do 85 to 90 percent of the pride''s hunting, while the males patrol the territory and protect the pride, for which they take the "lion''s share" of the females'' prey. When resting, lions seem to enjoy good fellowship with lots of touching, head rubbing, licking and purring. But when it comes to food, each lion looks out for itself. Squabbling and fighting are common, with adult males usually eating first, followed by the phptographs females and then the cubs.

The cheetah is built for speed. It has long, slim, muscular legs, a small, animal rounded head set on a long neck, a flexible spine, a deep chest, nonretractable claws, special pads on its feet for traction and a long, tail for balance. Although fast, the cheetah cannot run at full speed phptographs and animal for long distances (100 yards is phptographs about the limit) because it may overheat. Cheetahs have distinctive black "tear stripes" that connect from the inside corner of each eye to the mouth that may animal serve as an antiglare device for daytime hunting. Cheetahs are found in open and partially open savannas.

The long-legged Grevy''s zebra, the biggest of the wild equids, is taller and heavier than the Burchell''s, with a massive head and large ears. Zebras animal have shiny coats that dissipate over 70 percent of incoming heat, and some scientists believe the stripes phptographs help animal the animals withstand intense solar radiation. The black and white stripes are a form of camouflage called disruptive coloration that breaks up the outline of the body. Although the pattern is visible during daytime, at dawn or in the evening when their predators are most active, zebras look indistinct and may confuse some predators by distorting the phptographs true distance between them and their prey.
