We followed up on an earlier sighting of the Southern Pride on a kudu kill. After finishing the last bit of meat, they moved on, allowing the hyenas and vultures to grab the last bits and pieces. Because the cubs are still vulnerable to other predators, they searched for a safe place to spend the rest of the evening.

This morning, we tried our luck again and found them, still nursing their full bellies, and soaking up the warm morning sun. One of the Gijima males joined them through the night, but he kept his distance from the rest of the pride. The pride will spend the next day or two digesting their well-deserved meal before looking for the next potential prey animal. Lions will feed on average every third day but are very opportunistic and will hunt again when they can.
