Editor’s Note

We travel to the African savanna, which has been home to people and animals for millennia. Enoch Mobisa tells us what it means to be a lion conservationist in the Maasai Mara National Reserve in Kenya. Learn more about African lions in our Species Profile. Did you know that lions live in family groups, called prides, and that cubs are brought up by all the females in the pride?

And, we have something new for you: we plan to introduce you to a new book with each issue. This time it is the ‘Book of Beasts: An A to Z Rhyming Bestiary.’ Read about the book and how it came to be. And read about the very special person who wrote it! Do you have a favourite book that you would like to share with other readers? Write and tell us about it! (editors.ccmagazine@gmail.com)
