Nkuhuma Pride

[Mapokser]

@Tr1x24 killing females in estrus is nonsensical, and while killing adult lionesses is somehow common, most males don't do it, if an unknown female meets them, even not in eatrus, the average lion will most likely not even be aggressive towards her.

They might only kill lionesses if the females fight way too hard to defend cubs.

PCM are hyper aggressive and don't tolerate anybody ( not named Tumbela, weirdly enough ), I remember when they were taking over thr Ximhungwe pride, the Othawa Breakaway was in estrus, she lightly slapped the smaller PCM and got chased at full speed by the larger male, for who knows how many km. What other male does something like this? Most wouldn't even react, the smaller male who was slapped barely cared.

Some other males are very tolerant though, Ndhzengas were 4, the Kambulas played a lot of games with them, and attacked them to protect the subs and cubs, still none got killed, in fact I don't remember they even seriously attacking any of the females.

And then there's the Gijimas. They accepted 2yo Southern subs and tolerated the 2,5yo Styx subs ( only chasing the male sub, but never attacked or even pressured the females ), even nomadic PCYM killed a Styx sub, but Gijimas never even attacked any.

PCM's aggression towards females is off the charts. Reply
