Lions of Timbavati

Tanda Tula update

The tracks for the lionesses (probably two) kept on moving in and out of an inaccessible part of the Machaton riverbed where they have their cubs, but sadly they just weren’t showing themselves when they weren’t with the cubs.  I think we only had a couple of sightings of the lionesses over this time.  Fortunately, with the Mayambula’s being confined to the south-east, the River Pride felt more comfortable popping back into the northern sections and spent a couple of days close to Tanda Tula Safari Camp (we found them 100m from our bush breakfast spot one afternoon), and then they managed to catch another wildebeest the next day to ensure that the pride was staying strong and healthy.  Further west the lions were not overly active, and we didn’t receive any updates on the movements of the Giraffe and Sark prides.
