Kalaharai Gemsbok National Park, South Africa | A lion pushes on through a gritty wind in the Nossob Riverbed. Photographer: Chris Johns. South Africa's free-ranging lion population, an estimated 2,700 animals, lives mostly in and around the National Parks found in the northeast corner of the country. Only male lions boast manes, the impressive fringe of long hair that encircles their heads. Males defend the pride's territory, which can include some 100 square miles (259 square kilometres) of grasslands, scrub, or open woodlands.
