Mangheni Pride

[lionuk]

"It's been a couple of days that we followed up on the Mhangeni Pride who has been trying to hunt buffalo. Finally, just before the end of the afternoon safari, Andries and his group of guests managed to see the hunt in action where the 4 adults took on the big task of taking down a buffalo bull, and made it look effortless with the one female jumping on the back of the buffalo and the other muzzling the buffalo. The fight was over in a couple of minutes thanks to the rest of the pride holding the buffalo down.

This morning, on a cold and overcast morning, we followed up again.  Upon arrival, we saw one of the Mhangeni females tearing away at the stomach of the buffalo, busy opening it up trying to get to the soft nutritious lining. After opening it and feeding on what she could, she started scraping dirt over most of the stomach content to cover up the smell. The rest of the pride were all laying around with filled bellies and a grimace of satisfaction on their faces after their great meal."
