Lions

The Shishangaan Pride has been running away from the new males that have arrived in the area and now they seem like they have accepted the Trichardt males as the dominant males for the territory. Some of the lionesses were seen mating with them. They have been spotted spending time around the N’wanetsi River and moving east towards the eastern boundary with Mozambique. We are hoping to see cubs in the next couple of months. There are currently seven lionesses in the pride.

Mananga Pride has also been spending time in the concession. The pride is still split into two groups, a group of seventeen and eight. They sometimes join together when they have killed a big animal. They have been moving between Gundzane Dam and the Xinkelengana drainage, where there have been large numbers of zebra, kudu, wildebeest and waterbuck. The Shishangaan males were also seen joining them from time to time.

Mountain Pride has often crossed east into Mozambique and has not been spending a lot of time in the concession.
