Maps of Sabi Sand Coalitions Males and Prides

[Potato]

The Vuela males and the 3 males which are hanging with River pride are definitelly two different coalitions. Vuelas are a bit further west (most of their pictures are from nThambo Tree Camp and Africa on Foot Camp) and the single lionesses they are with is not from River pride. I am not sure if the 3 which hangs with River pride and that which are seen with Western pride are the same coalition althrough number coalition matches, distance between those 2 prides is not too big and that is what you added to our recent discution:

Also again what comes to Vuelas and dominant males of River pride being other coalition here is one of the recent reports of Tanda Tula:

To begin with, a correction is needed on last week’s discussion of how the River Pride males were taking over the Mbiri’s territory.  This was not because the Mbiri’s returned to claim their land (although, as I type this I can hear them roaring near camp), but rather the fact that we have been able to positively establish the identity of the three males, and know for certain that they are not the River Pride young males, but rather three new boys that appear to originate from the Klaserie Private Nature Reserve. The females that they are spending their time with are the four River Pride lionesses, and as it stands, it does appear that they may in fact, be setting themselves up as the pride males for these four ladies.  These two groups of lions provided for the bulk of our lion viewing this week, with the highlight being the three males roaring into the darkness one evening.

Three of the lionesses were seen with a baby giraffe kill earlier in the week and then spent two days sleeping off fat bellies before the fourth lioness re-joined.  The week closed off with a sighting of the two Zebenine lionesses resting next to their zebra kill, and it was wonderful to see both of them looking so healthy.  The Mayambula Pride remained unseen, despite the positive news that they did return to our concession, albeit briefly; their tracks were found on the far eastern boundary, but sadly we never caught up with them.  Other reports of lions in the area included the Giraffe Pride in the far west, as well as the other new pride of five males and one lioness in that western sector, but with lions in the east, the Tanda Tula guides didn’t venture that far afield.

That pride seen further wast are definitelly Vuela males. Reply
