Still, they might turn things around, I think they have 4 female cubs and they are all older than the Ximungwe cubs.

Ximunghwe even took over part of the Mangheni territory in Singita, but if Manghenis manage to raise the remaining cubs ( big if ) they can one day do to Ximungwe what they did to NK Breakaway.

These 3 current females are surprisingly weak but their daughters with PCM blood may be more similar to their grandmothers.

Meanwhile the Othawas' only hope is the PCM abandoning Ximungwe for them, might happen since they are the PCM new pride, or maybe the Ximungwes do have something other females don't and the PCM will alwyas favor them.

Hi I was reading your post interesting. When looking At Mahangeni lionesses when two older lionesses were around I thought older lionesses were strong. 

Two lionesses that later came back with older lionesses; we’re on their own young. 

I do not want to compare, but their story is diferente to Gingerella. Gingerella was with her brothers and then on her own. Gingerella may had tried to go back. Young lionesses met the Ximunguwe lioness that was also on her own. Maybe experience on their own made them bond and more aggressive? 

I am thinking do lionesses know they are with male lions with other lionesses and cubs? Do they know they 
are competing for their attention? I say attention they want their help with cubs maybe even bonds I do not know how lions would feel I think they do have feelings and affection. 

Made me think did Ximunguwe lioness made more call to plain camp male lions when hunting or sharing? 
Mahangenie lioness had many cubs. Maybe plain camp attraction lead Ximunguwe lionesses to Magangenie and they stayed away. Also Gingerella was youngest lion would they prefer younger lioness and stronger lionesses? If they are hunting, and stronger would they attract more male lions? Maybe more lionesses attract male lions but don’t they choose a side when lionesses have confrontations and lionesses move? If Mahangenis and Ximmugiwe lionesses move the male lions would choose? 

Like Nukhuma lionesses they did not go back. 

I do not think they would leave Ximuguwe lionesses. They have cubs and wouldn’t Gingerella maybe having cubs again? 

I also had another question. Mahangeni lionesses have four female cubs and one male cub or three female cubs and one male cub? I think there is only one cub male lion? 

I would like to see Ximguwe lionesses raise cubs. If Ximugwue lionesses had two male lions it would be exciting to see a pair of Selatie grandsons grow, and plain camp son. Reply
