Lions of Sabi Sands

[Tr1x24]

@Mapokser  NK doesnt hang in or near territories of these lone males, he doesnt have a map to see: "oh here is lone male, lets take on him".

Also, even in a 1vs1, between 2 prime and healthy males, takeover rarely happens. S8 would prob not takeover DM, if DM was not injured.

S8, RRM and Kruger male are neighbours for years, now Skyned son also in the mix, and nobody takeover anyone (and its not that they didnt interact) because thats hard to do.

Now answer me how S8, RRM, OM, Mapoza, BDM, Mo Vurhami and other famous loners become territorial? 

They all beat other territorial males in glorius fashion, right? Ofc no, they all become territorial on vacant/abandoned territory, gained vacant prides, as thats almost only way how solo males can become territorial, unless they attack unhealthy, injured or old male.

Downplaying NK male as solo male is wrong, as he didnt had opportunity like those solo males. 

Ok, we can talk that he could done more to help Nhenha, but thats also debatable as they where matched against 2 PC males, as a new coalition, that was prob not winnable.

And in the end, who knows what would happen if Styx didnt die, they could have been on PC males position rn and we wouldnt even talk about this.

As for BDMs, they ousted Mohawk very easily, tried to attack Ndhzengas outnumbered, didnt succeed  (no evidence that they caught Amahle in 1vs2) but succesfully carved territory in between Ndhzengas and S8. 

They dont have pride because Nkuhumas are on the run because of subs, but soon those 3,4 females will be in estrus, and they will mate with BDMs.

Ndhzengas and Gijimas also didnt had big pride from the start, they had 1 adult female in SP, and then added Styxs when females return to estrus and stopped running from them because of subs. BDMs will have similar situation with Nkuhumas. Also PC males aswell had only 2 NK breakaways for almost a year. So this is pretty normal. Reply
