"As has been the case for the previous two months, all sightings of the Styx pride were in Charleston (the southernmost section of our reserve) and we had hoped that this perhaps signalled the pride’s intent of finally settling down again. However, they were only viewed there on the 2nd and the 3rd of December before vanishing yet again. January saw our hopes rise again as the pride returned to Charleston – they were viewed here on five days. They were seen in the southwestern corner of our reserve on the 11th, 12th and 13th before heading north when they were found to the north of Jakkalsdraai Open Area on the 14th. By the 15th they had returned to the southeast corner. "

I said" about" 2 months, i didnt check exact dates, i check it now, they are in western sector now for more then 1 month, which is huge time for them in one area as they where moving thru Sabi Sands on daily basis. We'll see if they move again, reports are saying that they started scent marking. 

It seems that in the process they lost 1 of the younger females as 2 females where seen with bite marks on their backs in Elephant Plains in January , prob had a clash with some bigger pride. Reply
