Styx Pride

[criollo2mil]

"When we heard vocalising lions very close to Selati Camp, we did not waste any time and rushed to the direction we thought the lions were calling. A short distance from the lodge, we found some fresh lion tracks, and shortly after, we found the lions in a riverbed chasing some wildebeest. As the lions assembled after a failed chase, we noticed that two lionesses and one sub-adult male from the pride were not there, but later we found them about 2 km away from the rest of the pride.

The Styx Pride has not been in our area for some time and finding them today was a joy for everyone. There have been a lot of male lion tracks in the reserve lately, and we all think, at some point, they will meet up with the Styx Pride if they did not already do so last night, as the pride was separated into two groups. The young male lion in the Styx Pride could face some difficult times if the big male lions decide to join the pride."
