Lions of Timbavati

[Potato]

Tanda Tula update

The lions were still active in the east, although we didn’t see them as often as would be expected, but it was mainly due to the fact that the pride appears to have spent their days down in the Machaton Riverbed close to the den site, and out of view of our prying eyes. We still haven’t seen the cubs, but I have no doubt that the first sighting will be before the end of the month. The Giraffe Pride were active in the far west again, and we once more heard roars of lions coming from the Klaserie to the west where it appears as though a “new” pride has moved into the area. A couple of weeks ago, a male lion and two young lioness from way north in the Klaserie were spotted in our concession, and it appears as though these lions are now nomadic and looking to set up a new territory.  With the River Pride operating so far east, there is every chance that these new lions may start to venture into the Timbavati on a more regular basis.
