It was one of those HOT and busy days in the Okavango Delta and I was running a bit late on my schedule, landed at one camp with the C206 stopped in the parking area, moved my chair forward to let the pax out, I waited a while and nobody got out, when I asked what the problem was, they first just said...."no problem", so I moved the seat back jumped out and started walking around the aircraft to the other side to open the back door, when the pax in the back asked whether I'm not scared of lions?

So I then started looking around and only to see three hugh male lions lying around 25 metres from me in the shade, cozy staring at me!! Needles to say, I moved around the nose of the aircraft and got back into my seat with the door closed until the game drive vehicle arrived.
