A great sighting of the coalition made of 7 young males causing havoc in the Satara area. Since they first appeared on the scene August 2020 there has been constant sightings of these 7 boys. This coalition is comprised of two slightly darker, older males who seem more dominant, whilst the other 5 males are blonde still, all impressive already though. Their origin is unknown with a possibility that they came from the southern pride in Lebombo but no evidence has been found. 

These boys seem ready to take a territory which is trouble for all the aging coalitions in the area. The Shishangaan males, Sweni males and the lone Kumana male are all at risk from this new force. Enjoy this recent picture of 4 of the 7 males. The question now is, What is next for these 7 brothers!

Words by photographer: We followed them for a while until they seemed to settle down. At that moment an (unfortunate) lion responded to their roaring by roaring back from the South. All seven males immidiately sat up and sprung into action. Led by the 2 older males, all seven eventually crossed the road, stalking towards the roaring lion on the other side. Unfortunately the lush green bush made it impossible to follow them or to see what happened next but the look in their eyes revealed sinister intentions. 

Also attached second picture of them when they first appeared on the scene mid last year.

The older men out near really don't have much of a choice if this group decides to occupy the area, I hope these young people do not make the mistake of separating even at this stage, as it always generates losses. 
It is always impressive when a coalition with so many members appears Reply
