Panthera

Africa has long been symbolized by her most terrifying predator: the lion. Powerful, near unstoppable, she owns the twilight hours, more silent than a ghost. There’s something truly fascinating for me about the feline form. Even with such strong shoulders, tightly-muscled thighs, she has a kind of elegance, a grace that belies her true dangerousness. A fierce intelligence flashes in her eyes, and I wonder what it would be like to rule the savanna as she does.
