So it looks like the Monwana males will soon be completely dominant over the Giraffe Pride with BDM gone.

They oused him quite while back already and since then they fully secured arena where Giraffe pride is resident. Of course they are on way to fully secure that pride as well and they surely will unless some other, stronger coalition will came in and force Monwana males out.

Tanda Tula update

The River Pride featured rather prominently in our sightings last week, which was fantastic.  The pride went on a very successful run of hunting, with three kills in three successive nights (an impala, followed by two zebras).  Despite their fat bellies, the pride remained surprisingly mobile, something that has seemingly become the norm since the loss of five of their six cubs (check out our latest Sofa Safari on our Youtube channel where I discuss their fate a little more). Their movements kept taking them to the north of the concession for a couple of days at a time, before their inevitable return and the roars of the three Nharhu males that so often woke us in the early morning hours during lockdown now feel like a distant memory. One consequence of this shift north is that the southern Mayambula Pride may start pushing further north in the absence of these territorial adverts.  Although I kept on seeing the tracks of this mighty pride during lockdown, they remained frustratingly elusive, but this week saw my fortunes change when the pride spent a couple of days within our concession and I got to spend some time with all sixteen members of the pride, including the two impressive Mbiri males. The ten subadults are now all the size of their mothers, and I can only imagine how much a pride of that size must be eating to keep all the members looking so good. The Giraffe Pride also popped up in the western parts of the concession this past week, and Civilized made the long trip to go and see them.

I knew that the Umbabat males fathered the Jacarandas. Did you read that they also sired the 3 Timbavati?
