Lions of Sabi Sands

[Cath2020]

Okay, interesting update if true.  Junior seems to be with step-daddy HB now!  As far as he's concerned, that's the only one he knows and is his 'true' dad since he probably never even met his Majing. ones.  Maybe he'll take some tips from him.  Good to know he may be helping out old HB while hunting and learning the ropes.  Seems to me that they can hunt capably on their own now??! 

He might have been curious and intrigued by the old lion wandering away and decided to follow, while his pride brothers chose to stay with mom for the time being.  They are a good 7 months younger, which makes a big difference during the sub-adult years....  Still, I hope that in the future, they'll all be together when they have to leave the pride. 

Incredible.  In my eyes, the dynamics of the Othawa Pride and what's been transpiring is truly worthy of a special documentary.  The old Mapogo daughters have been busy bees lately.  While big Aunty Othawa has been marathon mating with the Tumbelas, distracting them, her sister has been in and out of the scene with some story of her own that's not yet crystal clear.....Perhaps seen mating with them as well, but already on their side for now. 

The pride fractures.  Sassy and her subs alone, depending on her utterly.  Meanwhile, the older sub suddenly disappears for days and joins the old pride male on his wanderings.... Reply
