This young lion was tunneling deep under the skin of the giraffe. The chest cavity had clearly been emptied of heart and lungs and the liver was eaten already. The lower limbs were still present. Fundamentally he was not taking big bites of meat, but more licking the blood on the meat. From time to time his entire head was under the skin.
Flies disturbed by his eating !
Stabilizing the carcass with his paw
Burrowing deep !
LickingÂ
Bloodied mouth
