Lions feasting in Gir. You are invited! [1]

The setting sun has painted the sky a bright red. But, for a group of wide-eyed tourists, it's a different red that's attracting their attention. A bloodied buffalo is being torn apart by two lions while two cubs join in. This is right in the middle of the lion country, just 25 km from Sasan, close to the core of Gir lion sanctuary that is the last refuge of the endangered Asiatic lions.
