SINGITA SABI SAND MONTHLY WILDLIFE REPORT - April 2023

Lions

• In the north an interesting development is taking place as six male lions consisting of a few...from the Nkuhuma Pride [and Talamati Pride] and their [male relative], the northern Avoca male lion, are spending time together. For now, it is too early to say what will happen, but we will be keeping an eye on them and their movements as they look to settle out of the way of bigger males. The Plains Camp lions have a firm grip on territory to the south, but the north is largely unoccupied.

• The three Ntsevu Breakaway males and their lone sister have been a regular occurrence in the south, often near buffalo which graze daily in the grasslands. These young lions are still learning their abilities and provide great viewing. Earlier in the month Andries and his guests watched as they successfully took down a buffalo calf close to Castleton Camp. A crucial meal for their development and confidence as young hunters. Reply
