Any time I stop by the Denver Zoo, I run by the volunteer center (one of the perks of volunteering!) and check the event board. There are two words that always bring joy to my heart: Carcass Day.
As part of the enrichment of the animals at the zoo, they’ll often get a chance to feed in a communal setting, much like they would in the wild. Where they get to decide as a group whether to share or fight for the best bits. Where they get to stretch out a meal for a day or two the way they would in the wild.
In this case, it’s a whole lamb for the lion ladies, close enough to the habitat’s edge to safely get this intimate with a 50mm lens.
