I dont follow Mara so idk what was situation, but i suspected that was the case then, otherwise it would be really strange.

Pretty much thats it in a nutshell. The Moms and Aunts had cubbies for a while now so since then they've been very concerned with him and make sure he knows his place when they cubbies are around. Olobor used to be the one to give him hell and as was mentioned gave him a little beating so Olonkera stayed a way for  few weeks. Oloimina/Lorkulop are extremely tolerant of him, for now. Well see if that lasts. Oloshipa I think just goes with the flow.  Olonkera sometimes hangs with Olobors son the Sniptail cub. 


Oloimina and Lorkulop rescently let Kijana know what time it is. Im not really sure the  cumstances on hiwbthis came about. There also was a lioness there which Oloimina was more concerned with. I cannot link the short FB video for some reason.

As I remember, Half Tail started showing dominance to Oloimina and Lorkulop, and they put him back in his spot.  It was around a kill if I recall.

There was another video of Lorkulup reuniting with the pride and the Half Tail subadult male was scruffing his feet showing dominance infront of him. Hopefully he’s one of the males who creates a coalition with Olonkera, as I believe every successful coalition needs atleast one aggressive male. Olonkera seems pretty chilled so far but that Half Tail looks like he will be an aggressive boy, very stocky like Olobor too although I’m not certain that’s his father.

Yes, that's the one that I was thinking of.  From what I've read Olobor is the father of little Half Tail.  I've said a few times that if and when Olonkera is drummed out again, that I hope little half tail is of an age that he can go with him. Reply
