-The Lip Lady-

This lioness was first seen in May 2009 in the Gudzani Dam area as a sub adult and there was speculation as to how she might have gotten that injury that would mark her for the rest of her life, many think she was kicked by a dam and others believe she was bitten by a venomous snake, it will never be known how she got it what can be said about her is that she was an emblematic lioness in the s41 area as she was in her adult years she became the matriarch of the Gudzani pride and was an excellent hunter of Buffalo and Giraffe, the last sighting of Lady Lip was at the end of 2018 she is believed to have died! 
P.S. The male next to the iconic female Lip Lady is one of the Mananga/Gudzani brothers and it is striking the resemblance he shares with the dark mane male of the Ngotso males known as Vuku, he could be his father as he doesn't know the origins of these males!
