We'll have two separate prides the massive size of the old Kambula Pride, before you know it.

What do you mean a split? Has K2 been seen with her her cubs? Interesting if it is meant to be the youngest of the Kambula could join with the youngest from the Mahangeni pride. There is only 2 male lions ? Maybe they might form a bond, but wouldn’t the older one leave earlier ?

He means the Kambula pride and Ntsevu pride, which were originally one pride, will/could both end up being as large as the original pride of 6 lionesses (as well as cubs/subs), which is quite a high number of adult lionesses. At least for Sabi Sands/Kruger.

Provided all the Ntsevu cubs make it to adulthood, the two boys could form a coalition. They are only a few months apart, no reason they couldn't/won't leave together.

Ok I did not understand. Yes they have many cubs. Yes hoping it is meant to be that they can all grow up.

Yes I know sometimes the older cubs when they get older leave when they are older than their brothers. If it is just two male lion they might form a strong bond. In the Kambula pride if there are 8 male lions I could see the older lions leaving early in a group of 6 or 7 maybe 5, but I do not know their age. Eight is an even number but I can see 4, 5 or 6 leaving together then maybe another two together. Hoping it is meant to be. Reply
