  • The rare photograph, taken in 2012, shows an unusual moment of calm for male lions, who typically patrol or hunt separately.
  • The lions belonged to the Black Rock Pride and were spotted near a flowing stream during a morning game drive.
  • Dolpire described it as his 'special moment' after over 20 years of wildlife photography, as the lions dispersed quickly after the shot.
  • Such images offer insights into lion social dynamics and pride stability, bridging art with conservation knowledge.
