In two separate sightings:
After a hot afternoon we decided to head to a waterhole and to our surprise we noticed a female lion – as we got closer we saw the pride sleeping not too far off.  After some playful cubs climbed all over the females, they settled for some suckling.
We heard the calls of lions in the early hours of this morning. We set out and followed their sounds until we located them in the distance. These four males were on a mission, walking on steadily and scent marking.  They eventually gave in to the heat of the day and took cover under the shade of some trees.

Im a bit nervous seeing Othawa male and Mhangeni pride hanging out in Sabi Sabi, close to 4 N'ws.. If they bump into each other that can be devastating for the cubs who wouldn't be able to run away from the 4 males.. Also Othawa male was seen roaring there, that can also attract N'ws.. 

I hope that when OM and Mhangenis hear roars from N'ws they will return north..

The Othawa male yesterday wasn't near of the N'waswitshaka males, As well, Sabi Sabi explained that are a quite distance each-other, Which means that not are a threat for him... Reply
