Skorro jr is back to the west. Hopefully he will find Sassy and the subadults there.

I don't think he has shown any interest in the Othawas for weeks now. He is just wandering around aimlessly.

Will he attract trouble to the girls?
And yet Sassy is having plenty of trouble from every adult lion in the area anyway. Either way, trouble abounds.

He has been seen again today, but he's not alone- he is with the Ximhungwe lioness and Gingerella.

No surprise there. Ultimately he just wants sex and food. Something Sassy is offering little to none of.

There is no such thing as relationships in the lion world.

Brave and good looking specimen. 
His story breaks my heart but that is what happens to many lions, and that is what lion's life is about. Move forward successfully Skorro Jr., as the good warrior you are!!

the history of the tumbelas as a whole is very sad since they became nomads until today they rarely had a moment of peace, maybe just the period alongside othawas but with Scar and limper in constant bad shape, Skorro jr didn't suffer as much physically as his brothers who departed, but was left with the shadow of being the last and alone. Not only that, but Othawa's pride that was extremely promising also ended up being swallowed up in history, these leftover pups carry a lot of the past, I hope they manage to save themselves and Skorro jr will one day have a coalition partner again something like the one what happened to Sizanani.

I agree, his story is a really sad one to this point. Scar had it really bad, for the way the pride would turn on him, and attacked him over kills when he became weakened by illness, and who can forget Limper, who seemed to have a really playful, free spirit, side to him. Just like NYM, who has had a rather tough go of it his entire life as well, I do hope NYM and Skorro Jr's stories have a much happier ending, since they are still being written.
