RE: Avoca male lions - DARK MANE - 07-23-2022
Mohawk and Blondie with nkuhuma pride.
RE: Avoca male lions - DARK MANE - 07-24-2022
They are saying blondie might be suffering from TB.
RE: Avoca male lions - DARK MANE - 07-24-2022
Mohawk and Blondie are with nkuhumas.
Any idea who is this new young male in the starting of this video.
RE: Avoca male lions - BA0701 - 07-25-2022
My bad, should have watched them first. Apologies.

He wasn't saying he "Has" BovTB but describing the 2 reasons why that back hip/leg injury is so common on male lions from Kruger/Mara/Serenghetti, etc.... My opinion is if its from TB there should be other details, for example; very skinny, sickly looking, etc... to go along with the boney hip. I think Blondie has prior injury that never healed just like so many others.

Blondie has that "skinny" sindrome since 2019, alongside occasionaly limping on either back or more recently front leg.
He definitely has some sort of health issue, is that TB or something else, we dont know.

2/2 Southern Avocas
RE: Avoca male lions - DARK MANE - 07-25-2022
2/2 southern avocas on a kill. ( from 2:15 to 3:10)
Though they numerically not very strong ( just 2), they hold the southern sabi sands exceptionally well from the past 4 yrs.
I really hope we get sightings of their male linage too ( like we got of nkuhumas and talamatis boys).

Their sons in Sand River pride should be chased out in a few months. They are at least 3 years old if im not wrong.

I got a little confised here as I thought S. avocas took over Sand River pride in 2019 and then Plains Cmap pride in 2020. I guess its the other way around.

They took both in 2019.
There is one young female in Sand River pride born around late 2019, but next cubs where born 1 year later.
RE: Avoca male lions - BA0701 - 07-28-2022
Mohawk and Blondie with the Nkuhuma Pride. Guide says since 1994 wild lion populations have declined by 43%, which is equal parts heart breaking and infuriating.
