Elephants may seem out of place in this landscape, but they're not the only ones. Amazingly, lions live here, too. In savannah country huge herds of games support prides containing 20 lions or more. But to live here lions have had to change their habits. Prides are much smaller and their home ranges are very much bigger. And there's an added problem. Their food is always on the move. Like the elephants, the lions must travel great distances to find enough to live on. But lions can't go everywhere. They won't attempt to cross this field of sand dunes and the oryx know it.


在这片土地上，大象似乎已经很难生存，但它们并不是这里唯一的大型动物，令人意外的是，这里也有狮子，在稀树草原地区，一个狮群的数量可以多达20只，但在沙漠里，就必须改变自己的习惯，狮群变小领地范围变大，而且还有别的问题，食物总在移动之中，和大象一样这些狮子必须长途跋涉，才能找到足够的食物。但狮子并不能哪儿都去，它们不会穿过沙丘，长角羚知道这一点。
