Lions of Sabi Sands

[Vengeous]

Updates from Singita:

• Not far from Boulders Lodge, and in the close proximity of the Sand River, we have been extremely lucky to watch the Tsalala lioness and her three cubs as they frequent the area. They are forever playful while mom is around, then remain out of sight and out of mind when mom is out hunting.
• The Mhangene Pride have had altercations with other prides and dominant males. Sadly, they now only have seven of their youngsters with them. The Tumbela male continues to live his best life feeding on what the lionesses manage to take down, while the Plains Camp males are preoccupied in other parts of the Sabi Sand Game Reserve.
• The Plains Camp males have been seen mating with one of the Othawa lionesses just north of the river. They create excitement on the cooler mornings when we hear them roar.
• The Nkuhuma sub-adults are also seen from time to time on the property. They recently stole a kudu bull from the Tsalala lioness who had gone to collect her three cubs and take them to the kill.
• The Talamati and Nkuhuma male lions have been seen occasionally. Most recently feeding on a buffalo bull they managed to catch in the southern parts of the reserve.
