So beautiful, I imagine the lions are getting the warmth from the asphalt? I’ve seen snakes do that, and bunnies.
One of our parks here has a drive that follows the river. Last year four resident geese decided to lay down right in the road. I was out there, trying both carrot and stick methods to get them off the road, stopping traffic, lol. (If only I had some bread) At one point one of the geese came at me hissing, lol. They finally moved.
