Think Sizanani died/starved to death when Skorro was fighting and keeping avoca/Giraffe away. Skorro did well alot of their offspring survived from nharu and mbiri pride. Lambile just wasn't seen for ages and then tintswalo eventually said he's dead

Thank you so much, my friend! Those Nharu males sure did not fare well, but their story isn't yet finished. Yeah, I remember reading, or maybe seeing a video, that Sizanani was really ill, and just disappeared. I never knew if the thought was that his illness had killed him, or the Avoca/Giraffe group, as I know that was all around the same time. Skorro never had much of a chance at fending them off by himself, but he did really well for awhile.

Yes, really huge ! But does it presage great events as concerns the social dynamic of the lions prides around ?
" As i set out to look for the Gomondwane male lions, this male lion appeared out of nowhere.
This, the oldest of the two S21 males, have taken the Makhohlola terriotry, and is threatening to move even more south, as this lion is proving.
The Makhohlola male lions have been dismantled by a unknown force, and these males might very well be responsible, even for the death of the old father LubeyLubey.
Times are changing in the far southern kruger national park, as the lion dynamics are ever evolving.
Will this male lion look to challenge for Gomondwane territory soon, or perhaps run into Zaza and some of the Vurhami young males? "
Is there any update on the Guernsey Lioness that had cubs around late spring/summer of last year with the N. Avoca Males? Last update was June '23, soon after giving birth. No word since.
And it seems the entire Timbavati River Pride subs disappeared ages ago. The 3 males and one female. Chances are that they either didn't make it, or had to run far away and thus, no updates. It's very sad and I sometimes think about those 4 that went through so much after their sire died defending the pride from the Skorro Males. All of them had to go nomadic around the age of 2, or slightly before. None of the adult lionesses ran off to help them for several more months either.....

You might be mixing up some names? N Avocas never mated or have been around the Guernseys.
Do you mean Black Dams? There is 1/4 brothers that stays almost exclusively with the Guernsey Breakaway. I know there’s cubs but the number escapes me.
Sorry, I think they were the N. Black Dams. I mix the names up, that's all. Yea, haven't heard anything about those cubs she had last year, nearly a year ago.

1/3 Sweni males late last year. Unfortunately no sightings of them since December when they lost Sweni pride to the 6 Mayambula males.
