Avoca Male Lions and Their Male Lineage

[Mapokser]

After S.Avocas went nomadic under pressure of Nkhulus, they moved several km from their territory and were seen mating with the Hamilton pride, while not long before the Leeubrons were also seen mating.

That was the last confirmed sighting of the 2 S.Avocas together if I'm not mistaken, later it was said they were seen close to their territory again before the smaller one showed up injured in Sabi Sands, but I don't think this sighting was ever truly 100% confirmed.

The larger Leeubron male was photographed with injuries around that time as well.

Anyway it was never clear what happened but Leeubrons and Nkhulus were the most likely culprits. Maybe Londolozi got info from Kruger guides about a fight with Leeubrons because often they don't make such statements about who killed who if they aren't sure.

You'd think they'd say something like "the larger S.Avoca went missing in Kruger", or at best "it is believed that a clash with Nkhulu or Leeubrons were likely the reason why the larger S.Avoca disappeared", but they straight up said the Leeubrons killed him. Reply
