Lions of Sabi Sands

[Mapokser]

The fact Gijimas are dominating and "bullying" the Nkhulus is unreal, Avocas were already very strong and couldn't handle the pressure from challenging Nkhulu, but here the Gijimas are having the upper hand against prime territorial Nkhulus.

Sure most Nkhulu aren't as healthy as before but still, they're now territorial and in prime age, and 2 of them are fully healthy, big, strong males. I can't see any other duo but Gijimas resisting and thriving under the pressure of a coalition of 6.

We see that even young challenging coalitions of 5 like Bboys and Majingilane will "easily" defeat the strongest duos like the Mlowathi Mapogo and the S.Matimba.

And territorial coalitions then? Say the 5 Vuyelas, they didn't even try to take over the Mayambula pride but casually ousted the 2 mighty Skorro males with some casual pressure.

Hell even when it is 3v2 it is already extremely difficult, even the 2 Mbiris couldn't beat the Nhahru males after all, that despite 1 of them having a permanent limp and they being young small challenging males, not established territorial lions.

I mean that's how it is, it sounds unnatural how the Gijimas are chilling and constantly chasing off their 6 territorial neighbors for months now.

Something tells me that this isn't sustainable, the condition of the unhealthy Nkhulus is far far from bad enough that they couldn't realistically beat any duo with just 3 of them, and they are 6!

If the Nkhulu try to seriously challenge Gijimas or Ndhzenga in the future, like they did with the S.Avoca, I can't see how this can end well for the duos, I just hope that if this happens, it'll be only when the current cubs are old enough. Reply
