Two lions, one yawning, in Uganda
Jacob and Tibu, two lions who are brothers, resting in Uganda's Queen Elizabeth National Park.
  • Two lions in Uganda swam nearly a mile across a crocodile-infested channel seeking mates.
  • Researchers said the swim is the longest on record for lions.
  • Lion populations in the area are under serious threat due to conflict with humans.

Two lions recently proved that there's no river wide enough to keep them from potential mates.
