One wildlife photographer stumbled upon a big cat, and when he caught the animal’s attention, the creature charged. In the moments leading up to the charge, the photographer managed to snap some stunning images, including one of the animal baring its fearsome teeth.

Thankfully, the photographer was behind a fence, so when the lion charged, it was unable to reach him.
