@Mapokser These three lionesses have a big responsibility on their shoulders now. Hopefully the original Mhangheni girls taught them well.

But I don't think Tumbela is much of a threat (right now), he's looking very skinny in those latest videos and I think Tinya could probably handle him on her own if he's in such a frail condition. Thank god the Nkuhuma male has moved off otherwise as you said the situation would be very different.

I did not know one of the younger cubs disappear. Hopefully he does show up. The Tumbela male lion being there may not be good. Maybe he is no threat and won’t harm anybody, but if he is taking from the cubs in a big pride. Like you said it is a big responsibility. I do not know how it was with the 5 adult lionesses, but I would think they did things a certain way. 5 helps with hunting, and taking care of many cubs; I am no expert but the older lionesses I would imagine help with roaring, help in hunting, and being with their cubs.
