Olifants to Crocodile Bridge, five

In the heat of the midday sun we came across the hot, pregnant lioness resting in a spot of shade.  There were about 6 cars looking, but all the rest drove away when she kept still.
Resting in the shade next to a waterhole
For some reason she suddenly got up and wandered over to have a drink.
Got up
 
Had a drink and wandered around the waterhole
THen she spotted this tortoise resting in the sun, she ran over to it and tried to eat it or play with it.
Make a determined aproach
 
Tried to chew it
Then after less than a minute, turned around, had a drink and went back to her piece of shade
Turned around

Walked back towards the water.

She then lay back down in the shade
