In 2018, National Geographic did a lovely story on a remarkable African lion. His name was C-boy and he lived long in Serengeti National Park in Tanzania, defied younger lions and was beautifully described by the writer David Quammen as “resourceful, cantankerous, patient, proud but pragmatic, seemingly indestructible, continually imperilled, and gorgeous to behold”.
It made me think of Novak Djokovic.
