Lions of Sabi Sands

[Duco Ndona]

From what I understand, due to the troubled relationship between fans and the rangers, we are now getting more X talked with ranger Y which confirmed Z kind of reports.
Unfortunatly in this case X did confirmed with a ranger that the cub died, but then added his or her own suspicions that the PCmale did it. Which was than taken as the rangers words when the larger community started to pick the story up. 

Offcource it always could be true, their relation with the pride isnt as good as is normal between prides and the males, so we cant confidently say they wouldnt kill the cubs out of that they never would do that. But presently there is nothing pointing in that way and other culprids are more likely.

It is concerning that the Tsalala lioness potentially lost all three cubs in three seperate events seperated only by days. This suggests she was either targetted or something shifted in the area that made it extremely hostile to cubs and not the general situation in the area as we are aware of it. Perhaps there was a shift in hyena territories or something that send a group of those at her doorstep.

If the third cub is indeed death. She is all alone again in an area in turmoil. My first concern will be her seeking out new males and then suffering the same fate as the Imbali lioness found earlier. Reply
