The female Sub adult has been missing for over 5 weeks and is pressumed to be gone now.    

So the Talamati Pride is now down to Tiyelele and the S8 son.   If something were to happen to Tiyelele, then presumably, the Talamati Pride name will go extinct.     This was a HUGE reason why the name change down south was heavily criticized.    Hopefully she prevails to have another litter (with females) and can raise them to independence and protect their pride’s legacy

With S8's sub not being hers, could She go into extrus and start mating with other males, or she Will wait until the sub adult is fully raised 
I know its Impossible to know for sure but I'd like to know of you and everyone think thats a possibility

Mothers have been known to go into estrus during any period after two years….many things vary but it’s not totally implausible that she could seek new mates any day now or wait much longer.   Many different circumstances will feed and dictate her behavior.    I think the sooner, the better tbh.

Perhaps she is waiting, like the rest of us, for the current status in the north to get sorted out. Not a very safe environment, at the moment, for raising young cubbies.

That’s a great point. It may be futile to have cubs RN. Reply
