Great info. Shame for the boys, but its good for the future of the pride that 6 out of 8 remaining subs are females, even if half of them reach adulthood, its big success.

Younger Styx female was seen with Bigger Gijima male together.
Maybe distracting from recent siege.
Styx pride has been in so much stress lately

Could be....Or she might actually be in heat again...Her 2 surviving cubs will turn 2 in Jan/Feb.... Some lionesses go into heat again before their cubs are even 2....maybe 1.5-2 years at times. We'll see in 3-4 months what the case is. (come Feb) This can only help the subs a little, no matter

Styx's at Lion Sands, both females here and all 8 subs:

With the heavy pressure from the Gijima Males, Styx has now been seen in Kruger in the Skukuza area.
Of note: It was said only 8 members were at this sighting.

All 10 members of the Styx Pride accounted for at Kirkmans.

Seems the Styx Pride no longer trusts the N’waswitshaka as their protectors. And may even view them as risks.
“The Styx Pride was successful once again in killing a wildebeest, most of the kill was consumed and almost twenty hyenas and countless vultures kept a close eye on any opportunity for some scraps. Suddenly two male lions came running in sending the Styx Pride, hyena and vultures in all directions. “

Thats been for a while now, Ndhzengas attacking them with Kambulas few months ago sealed the deal.
RE: Styx Pride - criollo2mil - 11-23-2022
some pics of Styx pride including Floppy Ear. I’ve been trying to find a sighting of all Styx together. I had heard they may be down to 9 members But I haven’t been able to confirm. It is believed they lost one cub (a boy). If that is the case, then floppy ear is the last remaining male. Let’s hope rumors are not true.

All members of Styx pride are in excellent condition and searing for prey. Good to see young ones are helping older lionesses.
