I spent way more time than I care to admit looking for a lion in this pic after reading your comment.

It didn't take that long to find the tail in the grass was pretty easy to spot.

Damn this gave me an old childhood memory of The Magic Treehouse where they get teleported to Africa and they don't see any lions but upon going to return to their treehouse they see it's because all the lions were resting in the shade of their tree.

I mean, likely used to be an entire forest there and this is the lone survivor, so less beautiful in that sense.

Volcano nearby laid down a layer of impermeable ash about 6 feet down. Trees only grow where that ash layer cracked and the roots can get down. That is why it is all grassland, not treeland.

No. That's an Acacia Tree probably in the Serengeti Park in Tanzania. They grow singularly, not together.
