Lions of Timbavati
|
From Sundestinations
Times are a changing for the lions of the Balule, according to news and sightings from Ezulwini Game Lodges… Of late, there has been a fight between some significant males in the area, and the seldom-seen Singwe Pride has made a statement by mating nearEzulwini Billy’s Lodge. The tension between the Mohlabetsicoalition and Duma has broken over a fight that was reported to have taken place recently. Two of the four males in the coalition fought with Duma – brother of the Mohlabetsi Male and leader of his own pride (also known as Kudyela). The Olifants West lions fragmented a long time ago, and Duma and his brother did not stay together, and now it looks like they have come head to head. The result of the fight is unknown – who won, and who lost? What Ezulwini guides can tell us is that the females and subadults in the prides have scattered since the fight between the male leaders. Ezulwini River Lodge guides say they see the tracks for the prides on the traverse early in the morning, but by that time the lions have moved east, southwest, and northwest of the traverse. In addition to this new activity, the Singwe Pride has been seen yet again in Ezulwini’s neck of the woods! Last week, 2 females, and a male were seen at River Lodge, and now one mating pair has been seen not too far from Billy’s Lodge. Interesting times in the lives of Balule lions… We look forward to seeing what happens next.  *This image is copyright of its original author
