Take your smartphone to the next level with the wallpaper ‘Legendary Mapoza’.
Location: Thornybush Nature Reserve, South Africa.
The legend himself, Mapoza. What a cool and impressive lion he was. He was unmistakably characterized by his 'blind' eye. His 'blind' eye was the result of a congenital glaucoma and nothing as gruesome as a badly executed hunt. He was more than likely born with this defect, but it has gotten progressively worse over time.
His condition made him probably the most famous lion in Southern Africa, but also that he was able to keep control over the Monwana pride all by himself was admired by everyone around. A lion that will never be forgotten, I hope he is in a better place.
