Kalahari - African Lion by wildlife artist Carl Brenders

 
Kalahari by Carl Brenders, available from Prickly Pear Galleries.
 
"The Kalahari is home for the Bushmen and many animals such as bat-eared foxes, aardwolf, bushbabies, oryx and sable antelopes, and many others. All of this attracts predators. The Kalahari is a monochromatic predominantly flat country with the classical acacias, low scrub and tussocky grasses. Unique in the entire world is that a complete river delta, the Okanvanga, north of the Kalahari, is completely absorbed by the desert. It is the only river that doesn't flow to the sea, but disappears in the sand.
 
"Lion-watching in the Kalahari is adventure. One doesn't get them 'on a plate' as in Kenya. You have to find and follow the tracks for a long time.  It is Africa as it was before it was discovered by the Europeans. My black-maned lion is an example of artistic licence, since lions in the Kalahari usually don't look so perfect."  - Carl Brenders.
