Whats their main food source in that desert to allow such a population growth?

[coketimemdear]

im from the namib desert, and im very suprised to see lions there, i think it may be incorrectly titled (probably the kalahari desert) i will def try and find the doc though.

@Inverness01 i dont thinks its food but less human confrontations that allowed the lion population to grow..lions dont have a main food source..they eat what they can catch
