To show how fast dynamics in a lion Pride can change:


In August of 2021, the Nkuhumas were a thriving Pride of 23 members.

- 7 Adults (RN, AE, PE, Chela and 3 Birminghams: Tattered Ear, Pale Eye and Daughter of RN)
- 6 Sub Males (2RN; 1AE, 2 PEs, and 1 Chela)
- 3 Sub Females (3 AEs)
- 7 Cubs from the 3 Birminghams

Losses began immediately after the PCMs began courting AE and RN,,,,one of Amber Eye’s three girls got too close and was killed by the PCMs appx. September.  


Today  after losing both Chela and Tattered ears in less than 30 days and Ridge Nose loss not long ago, it’s only  8 members.  


- Pale Eyes
- Daughter of RN
- AE daughter 1
- AE daughter 2
- 3F 2021
- 1M 2021

And the Three Boys w Mohawk

Yea, but young males are expected to leave the pride.


Regardless, even without them, numbers split in half in a span of 2.5 yrs.

I did not know or remember that the Nukhuma young male lions had 2 other brothers around their age? I know recently the young Nukhuma male lions lost one of their young brother may he rest in peace. I read there are still 3 Birmingham lionesses. Is Pale eyes one of them or is she an older lioness? I just see the list she is a daughter of the Birmingham male lions; there is two Birmingham daughters. The rest of the lionesses and lions are daughters and sons of the Avoca male lions? I had a question who was the younger male lions mother born in 2021? Reply
