Nhenha and Nkuchuma male were in Savanna so if they would chasse PC males then that would be rather towards north, not towards Umkumbe.

Dont think thats the case, they are too little time together (if they still are) to start engaging other males.

Prob lack of N'ws presence in Londolozi in recent days as they are further south or east in MalaMala.

Its probably just opportunism. Lions using the temporary absence of other lions to hunt in their territory etc.

Yea, PC boys become fathers, sighting of 1 male near by :



This means that old Nkuhuma females will split prob permanently.

Now that the PC males have officially become territorial and are fathers of cubs with RN and Amber Eyes, I think it is time to have a individual thread for the boys. All coalitions currently dominant in SS have their own pages, and sinces there are frequent sightings of PC males, I think we should start their own page.

Perhaps, but then this new breakaway pride should have its own thread as well. They are probably going to be playing a far bigger role in future lion dynamics than the PC males afterall. 

Though last time people suggested threads for the various groups people were already complaining it was already getting cluttered. 
So it would be better to reorganize first.
