With 5 females, 11 cubs and three dominant males. The Monwana pride is going to be a force to be reckoned with

Hopefully, tho if Xikukutsus will keep hanging elesewhere, there might be a problem for Monwana pride with Sumatra/Hercules, Black Dams and Birmingham/Torchwood males lurking around.

Tanda Tula update

The mating lions of last week also continued into this week before the young lioness lost interest and wandered off in search of the pride, leaving one of the Skorro males feeling somewhat lonely based on the amount of roaring he was doing. One windy afternoon that sent temperatures from 38 to around 15 degrees Celsius saw us finding this male curled up in a ball trying to get out of the cold wind. I had just told my guests that he wouldn’t waste his energy roaring I these conditions when he suddenly heard another pride member roaring upwind from him and immediately responded. He kept calling as he marched off in search of his pride mates but the wind and possibly lack of sun saw him getting seriously disorientated and he walked off in a completely wrong direction! Later in the week, we did catch up with all seven lionesses and one of the males as the continue to move large distances on a daily basis looking for enough food to satisfy the energy requirements of this large pride. The week also saw the two Sark breakaway lions making a reappearance and they are looking in good shape, and he is growing into a nice young male! The Giraffe Pride were found in the west late in the week, but with the Mayambula Pride around, our guides didn’t travel that far to see them.

2 wonderful looking boys, nice to see BYM's injuries are healing. These 2 are related as BYM came from same pride as TYM's fathers.

Gotta say, the Birmingham pride has one the strongest bloodline of any other pride in Kruger. Matimbas, Bboys and much more.

I believe you might be hard pressed to find another pride that has had as big of an impact on lion dynamics as the Birmingham Pride, could not agree more. That tail injury must really be painful, given the amount of swelling. We had a cat that got his tail bitten once, and it was very similar to this, only smaller scale obviously. It was so painful he would meow in pain every time his tail swayed, and he came absolutely unglued when the vet even just touched it.

Right! as far as I know, I believe someone told me that TYM is Nhenha's son.
