We visited Lion Country today; it’s a lot closer than Longleat but it’s not quite as spectacular as that English country estate location – for one thing, the lions at Lion Country are behind additional fencing that somewhat spoils the view.

So, here’s a selection of the photos we took – including near the end where we feed a Giraffe with $2 lettuce leaves …
