Lions of Timbavati

Safari Update
Another eventful week has passed in the Manyeleti Game Reserve!
The Nharu pride of lions made an appearance a few days ago and was found twice during the week. Unfortunately only 11 individuals were counted and a sub adult male and female are still missing from the pride! The pride is in great condition and on both occasions they were found with full bellies. They managed to kill a buffalo in the central north of the reserve but sadly lost their kill to the Birmingham pride accompanied by the formidable giraffe males. Fortunately it looked like the Nharu's did eat some of the meat!
Earlier in the week, two of the Giraffe male lions were found in the heart of Thanda Impi male lion ’Scorro’s ‘ territory and vocalised frequently during their unwanted visit! The Mbiri lionesses and cubs are still staying below the radar in the south western corner of the central Manyeleti. The last Thanda Impi male lion Scorro hasn’t been seen for many days and no info was received on his current whereabouts. The following day the Giraffe males made their way back toward the north where they reunited with the Birmingham pride.
Nompethu leopardess gave much excitement when she was found with an impala kill hoisted up in the heights of a Knob Thorn tree during the week!
A pack of five Cape hunting dogs were located on numerous occasions during the week close to main gate.
