Blood faced lioness.
Parc national de la Pendjari, Benin.

Red-flanked Duiker (Cephalophus rufilatus, Céphalophe à flancs roux).
These small, semi-nocturnal antelope are extremely shy and very difficult to photograph. They never stray far from the security of dense vegetation.
This one was engaged in a fight with another duiker when we arrived at the scene (as you can see he was still puffing). He needed some time to realise we were there.

This lioness was feeding on a kob she killed on her own in the morning.
