Lions of Sabi Sands

@Vengeous it's interesting that something similar to what you theorize may have happened before with the PCM.
While I wouldn't describe it so logically as "PCM saw the cubs alive, thought it was weird the other coalition couldn't kill the cubs and then killed them themselves thinking the cubs belonged to the other lions". But one of the Ximungwe litters sired by PCM, Tumbela and/or Nkuhuma, had a similar situation going on. Cubs were in the den and PCM found Tumbela close by, they chased him off, had a commotion with the females and the mothers left the den to never visit it again ( it was how a guise described at the time ). It could be that if Tumbela had never been seen close to the den, PCM would have accepted the cubs, but by seeing him their instinct that the cubs were from some other males kicked in and they killed the cubs. |
