The quirky side of the Serengeti has gained attention because of Christian Hargasser. In the vast expanses of the African savannah, where the predator-prey dynamic is a common occurrence, a juvenile lion cub made the wise decision to retire for the night. This future monarch, instead of going hunting or playing with its brothers, discovered an unusual throne in the form of an old, gnarled log.

The cub appears to be reminding us that every monarch, no matter how powerful, has bad days. Look at its little paws hanging down and its head resting so gracefully and carelessly. Nature’s answer to the adage “sometimes, you just need to relax” Therefore, keep in mind this young prince and his motto, “Pause and rest, for tomorrow, I conquer,” the next time you find yourself in a rush.
