The lion pride and hyenas had stripped the carcass of the zebra, leaving just the head remaining for the lion cub to chew on. SERENGETI, TANZANIA: A BRITISH photographer has captured the gruesome moment a lion cub gnawed on the carcass of a five-hundred-pound zebra - that still looked ALIVE despite missing its ENTIRE BODY. One image showed the young 50-pound cub pulling at the nose and lips of the zebra with its razor sharp two inch teeth. Another captured the cub tearing the last remaining bits of flesh from the zebra?s exposed ribs. The incredible photos were captured by photographer Brian Matthews (42) from the North East of England, UK, whilst travelling through the Serengeti in Tanzania. Whilst the kill happened during the dead of night, Brian managed to track down the lion cub who was accompanied by two adult lions after following a pack of hyenas who were moving towards the area of the kill. Brian managed to get within 30 feet of the cub and he captured the images on his Canon 1DX and a 500mm lens. Lion cubs begin learning to hunt when they are just six weeks old but rely on older members of the pride to catch food for them until they are around 16 months old. mediadrumimages.com / Brain Matthews
