Lions of Sabi Sands
|
 
Mohawk and blondie were recently also seen the furthest south they had ever been, this could turn ugly.

It's funny - just tonight on sunset drive Tristan Dicks (on Dark Mane sighting) was talking about how he thinks it is unlikely the 3 Avoca would end up together anytime soon but that might change with pressure from other males, that could make them join up again and were going through ther neighbourghs to the north (including Tinstwalo that apparently were seen on Buffelshoek before) and east (Trochwood pride Kruger males) that those show are asserting no such pressure, which seemingly prompter Dark Mane to start roaring :) Little did they know the pressure might actualy come from the south. I am no particularly fond of Ndzhenga males (that is much easier name to remember than the NW one!) so far, but coalition unrelated to Sabi Sands lions being succesful in siring cubs is always a good thing. And the Southern lioness has her cubs (great news they are both females) and maybe all Styx females are already pregnant so they are looking for more. If the take over Mhangeni pride, those are not exactly mothers with the best record though. Where exactly they were chased by Briminghams before? How far north it was? Ottawa male is in a tough situation. Hopefully he won't be lost in the struggle, cause if NWs would mortally wound him or scar him badly, there would unbearable number of people always holding that against them and taking sides. And ofc, such a magnificently looking specimen would be a loss on its own, perhaps he could rebound and even following him wandering around and keeping an eye on who he can meet up with and whether they join forces or not would be interesting. Last but not least, if he would move to area with less of Majingilane and Mapogo blood that would be great anyway. But let's what happens first, NWs might as well move back or wherever, nothing is done yet. How old is the Mhangeni sub adult female is there a realistic chance NWs would not want to kill her?

It seems to have been inside Sabi Sabi, so the Birminghams came south west that time  (02-22-2021, 06:50 PM)Potato Wrote: N'was do not border with Northern Avocas and will be no threat for them. As they where in Singita, N. Avocas territory is just northeast of them, not far away, so in theory they might be thread to all 3 coalitions around that area, depends on which they chose to attack, if they will, but yea its more likely they invade OM or Bboys then N. Avocas .. But this is all speculations, lets wait and see if N'ws really take some actions or will return south.

Even in their venture to Singita they were still far away from N. Avocas. One of those coalitions would have to overthrown either Othawa male or Birminghams. At that point they are not even bordering and the possiblity of territorial invasion is 0%.
N'ws are already back in Sabi Sabi, it looks like with Styx's :

Pretty confusing, wonder if they were even in singita in the first place. Maybe the singita guide was visiting sabi sabi.

This was around Selati Camp, which is on very north of Sabi Sabi and on border with Umkumbe, so they just needed to pass thru Umkumbe (prob around 5 km or even less) and they are in southeastern Singita.. They prob returned thru the night.. (02-22-2021, 08:01 PM)Tr1x24 Wrote:(02-22-2021, 07:31 PM)Tonpa Wrote: Pretty confusing, wonder if they were even in singita in the first place.

At the same time someone on Sabi Sabi posted a story of the Nwaswitshaka patrolling at night and saying they got active after sunset. Sabi Sabi just confirmed this with one of their recent posts saying the Nwaswitshaka got active after sunset. So yesterday they were at Sabi Sabi, not Singita. People are still asking her where she saw the 4 males but she hasn't answered yet. I'm also wondering if she is at a different location or if they were there earlier and returned late.
I think they were just checking out the surrounding areas to see if there is any resistance. Like someone said if the area is unclaimed or the owners are away too long, a new coalition will try to take it over.
@Tonpa for perspective in real map:
 *This image is copyright of its original author Marker is Selati Camp, and blue lines are Singita and red Londolozi.. So its only around 5-6 km to southeastern Singita, not that far away, human can walk that in 1-2 hours depends of tempo. But yea, they where never that far north. |
