Presumably from the altercation w the Kambulas

For only a duo, these guys are very well covering their vast territory with regular patrols, not leaving room for unwanted "guests" to sneak in. I guess only having 1 side of their territory to defend helps, but regardless, they are very active on their border.

Only Tumbela still hangs deep in the western sector, although only because PCMs dont mind, as he is not doing any trouble and was "warned" many times.

Other nomads who occasionaly hang there thru last year like NK, Kambulas or Talamati completley abandon idea to step deeper into their territory again, atleast for now.

One aspect of why these boys are so successful and dominant, is their undeniable strong bonds. Never too far from each other and seldom venturing alone

Very reminiscent of the S Avocas in that regard.

Very true. The success of a coalition of lions in the majority of parts is due to their strong bond.

One of the Plains Camp males. He looks so majestic with that full mane.

Does the 'smaller' PC male have a name?

No, he doesn’t have a name yet.

That must be a huge Nkuhuma lioness to be so close in size to the gigantic PC male.


RE: Plains Camp males - Mapokser - 05-05-2024

It seems the PCM had a big fight, probably over mating rights of one of the Nkuhuma female, credits to ntiyiso.ntimane on instagram:

That’s the smaller-maned of the two Plains Camp males, if i'm not wrong
