 Apparently 3/5 of Southern pride males trying to take over the Trichardt territory. https://www.instagram.com/reel/ChoJVGCKEbP/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=   
Interesting times as 3 different coalitions have tried claiming Shishangaan pride lately. First in control was the last Kumana, the last of 4 brothers controlling the pride for the last few years. Then he was challenged by the Maputo male who came from across the border from Mozambique and after many battles both joined up to make a coaliton. But then came the 5 Trichardt males (only 3 came) and they seemed to push Kumana and Maputo off into Mozambique.
But lately 3 of the 7 Satara males have also tried to stake their claim. The blonde Satara male was mating with a Shish lioness last week. Then was replaced by a Trichardt male. Then it all kicked off yesterday when the Satara males came into the concession looking for the Trichardt males. Trichardt males were roaring and than the 7 Satara males came in hot pursuit and hunted him down, luckily the Trichardt male was able to escape into the Lebombo Mountains. Tracks today suggest that the Trichardt males returned south and the 7 Satara males proceeded back West to their territory. Thing are heating up and a battle could be on the horizon.

Apparently the mother of Casper's cubs has been injured in some sort of fight/attack.

At least, there not any kind of injury visible which could probably indicate she's been involved in a fight. In my personal opinion.
Nothing, but that one Satara male has been seen like only 4 times in the last year so it's rare to see him. Also I don't know how injured he was could have been minor. I got a friend who drives h6 every day for work and hasn't seen him though
