Ol' Blondie has had a rough go of it recently. Odd thing is, once the big male begins paying attention to the female, and begins chasing after her, Blondie slowly gets up and begins following them. Given his submissive behavior right before that, I would have expected him to try and put some space between himself and the other lions, not get closer.

Quote:Looks like fang is trying to join the two males who have taken his two prides the larger male is olalashe and the younger male is Kijana they are the Owino pride males they fought with fang a few months ago and injured him.with the five bilashakas in the area teying to take the river pride this is a very smart move. These are screen shots from wild earth live

That is absolutely incredible, what a smart little bugger Fang is. Appears he took a beating, and fell back on the old adage, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em. Only thing is will they accept him after having fought him so many times. Will be interesting if we are able to follow this drama. Thank you very much for that update @Nyers , it is very helpful my friend! Reply
