Namibia's Desert Lions | The Real Lion King | National Geographic WILD UK

Did you know some lions live in the desert? The Skeleton Coast of Namibia, spanning hundreds of kilometres of desert and shore, is the unlikely home to a group of desert-adapted lions. Lion researcher Dr. Philip Stander follows the life of a trio of orphaned cubs as they live amongst the sand dunes, hunt marine life on the ocean shore and even have cubs of their own.
