The Jungle rulers - In the wild

Challenge #8 in the The Road less traveled series. Hosted by tsk1979.

Challenge has finished

Often we go to trips in national parks, and wildlife sanctuaries, looking for that Bear, that Tiger, that lion. Post a pic, taken in the wild, of such a predator. Remember, the predator should be one of the animals which are at or near the top in the food chain.

Capture date rules:

No restrictions.

Additional rules:

1. Picture of the Animal/Bird/Reptile etc., should be taken in its natural habitat.
2. The animal should be one of the top predators. So no silly racoons. A tiger or an alligator will do. So will an eagle.
3. Every habitat has its own high predator. To prevent cheating, you need to "Name the animal, bird, reptile" and also list the exact name of the forest or national park etc., with country and location. This will enable me to google for your entry, and se food chain
4. I am looking for actual forests, and jungles, not just a small state park. River animals also should be inside a nature reserve or forest
5. So no pics from your luxury cruise. Ocean pics must be taken from the coast which lies in a nature reserve or forest.
6. Pics which do not have animal name a reserve/forest/jungle name in description will be deleted.
Example - You went to African safari and shot a Lion mention
Animal : Lion
Place : Kenya jungle safari
