Lions of Tanzania (Serengeti, Ngorongoro and others)

[Brahim]

LK120, one of the five Lake Quintet males from Ngorongoro Crater. These guys have ruled all the prides in the Crater for 6 years and they are 10 years old.

There’s LK115, LK116, LK117, LK120 and LK121, they quickly gained dominance in the Crater yeaes ago that ultimately led to the takeovers of the Lakette pride, Munge and Mabinti pride, Mabiniti pride currently is the biggest pride in the Crater with approximately 17 members.

The Ngorongoro Crater is currently home of 65-75 lions with eight prides in total. While some of the successive young males left the Crater to frequently push into the Ndutu Conservation area (this had been witnessed with the Munge males and the Lagunita males) - possibly also to avoid the competition with the resident Crater pride males - the majority of the prides is shared between the two major coalitions, Lake Quintet and the Lake Trio.
