Mala Mala November:

THE NDZHENGA MALES = 4

2 ADULT MALES ± 6 YEARS 10 MONTHS 
2 ADULT MALES ± 6 YEARS 4 MONTHS

November 2021 will forever mark the month the four Nhdzenga males advanced north into the heart of MalaMala, earning themselves a spot in our Game report. From scarcely being seen on MalaMala, the four malesincreased the pressure on the Gowrie males and their challengers (Northern Avoca and Plains Camp males). 13 sightings of the Ndhzenga males were recorded around the area of MalaMala camp in November. On the afternoon of the 8th , these four males announced their arrival into northern MalaMala in style. The four males crossed into MalaMala from the west and roared their way to the Sand River in front of MalaMala Camp. Their roars echoed around MalaMala camp all night as they laid down the challenge. The following day three of the males were around Piccadilly Pans and Campbell Koppies, with two of the males sporting injuries. It was unclear who inflicted the injuries as the Gowrie male was in eastern Flockfield on a buffalo kill, and the two Northern Avoca males were found the following day without a scratch. We suspect the males fought amongst themselves as they pursued a lioness from the Kambula pride. On the 10th , two males were still around Piccadilly Pans licking their wounds. Overnight these males moved south along the Sand River and were at the Ngoboswan Donga the following day. On the 12th and 13th , two of the males were on the elephant carcass south of Rattray's Camp, while a third was at Styx Crossing on the 12th . A male was alone near the airstrip on the 15th and at Maurice's Pan the following day. Overnight he linked up with one of his brothers. The two of them were found south of the airstrip. A male was seen in the more familiar territory of the coalition near Beaumonts Camp on the 18th while one of his brothers was at Piccadilly Pans. On the 19th , a male was with a Kambula lioness was Old Wildebeest Crossing. Reply
