It breaks ones heart

[Hedrus]

I would like to share this.
It really breaks one's heart to see but that is nature and nature has to follow its own course.
This photo was taken of this youngster mourning over the death of his little sister who was killed and eaten up by a pride of 25 lions.
It captures the emotion for me that is cleary noticable with elephants.

Heard that guys doing culing in the old days had similar experience of ellies showing emosion for the dead ellies.

One can see we were in the same vehicle (and boat) ! Hedrus's shot was done with a Canon 1D MII and a 600mm IS and mine with a Canon 20d and 500mm IS.
