Othawa Pride

[Mapokser]

@afortich I think it's down to personality, some lions are more social and willing to form alliances, others after losing their brothers refuses to join anyone else, which is the case with Tumbela.

A shame because they had multiple chances to join up and being experienced and in their prime they'd have decent chances of becoming territorial somwhere else.

@Duco Ndona He was seen chasing both Birminghams by himself, and also fought Nhenha 1v1 and defeated him, all according to the rangers. His missing lower canine is proof of his fight with the Bboy.

But once Limper died he lost his confidence, although Limper was mostly useless he still gave Skorro Jr a sense of not being all by himself. Then it didn't took long for him to feel the pressure and go to Manyeleti... And at that time it wasn't even Birminghams only, PCM were consistently invading his territory too. He did well, better than most would.

As for his use for Othawas, these 2 almost got killed by Manghenis and Ximhungwes multiple times, we even have videos of them barely escaping. Plus their grandmother was killed by hyenas.

So he does have a lot to offer, not only he gives protection against lionesses and hyenas, by if PCM show up, he, with his limp, may end up as the bait, allowing Othawas to escape.

Edit: and as you say, he stays away from Ximhungwe cubs, cubs that have been accepted by the PCM. Reply
