As I've said many times, the only solution to this problem is to give all of these people (however many millions live in Central Africa) a new way of life, and move them away from this area. This solution is never going to happen, and Big Cats and Elephants will be gone from existence within our lifetimes. 
The remaining Fig Tree Boy Osupaat recently

Now, with the demise of his brother Nyekundo, he has a very difficult time to protect his Enkoyonai pride, especially against their main neighboring rivals, the 4 Lemek boys. However there is also good news as their 2 sub-adult sons, Engogu and Kas are growing very fast to being adults. They'll be 3 at this year and i bet they're ready to start on their own journey even right now, although they're still with their natal pride. Here are some photos of them:  *This image is copyright of its original author Kas:  *This image is copyright of its original author Credits also to Joshua Naingisa I think, Kas is either Nyekundo's or both are Osupaat's sons, it will be revealed later. Their dark mane at such young age is something very special typical feature to the 4'km bloodline. Don't forget, they're grandsons of Maridadi and Kaka, and great-grandsons of Blackie (& Lipstick) and their 3rd brother.
Lenkong'u captured by the Sankai. Are the Sankai stalking Osupaat's domain?
Osupaat is doing great - against all odds - he's still show his dominance, but recently more like near Oldikdik pride territory like here:
Now, with the leaving of 4 Lemek boys (Oldikdik pride males) into Naboisho, perhaps he got a little more airspace after the very close proximity of his neighboring rivals, last time with the addition of the 3 Sankai boys too... Some more great news: the 2 oldest sons of Nyekundo&Osupaat Enkoyonai dispersed nomads now Lenkongu and Kas were seen together at Naboisho. (This is not so great tho, in the grip of some large adult coalitions like Lemek, Rongai, MYF boys etc who have just started a bigger competition among themselves, completely upsetting the order, as you can see at latest case with b&f chasing between Lemek and Rongai boys. So, this is not the safest area for them now, but hopefully they can avoiding any problems.) They're seeming in great shape and luckily it seems Lenkongu hasn't any problems with the former minor bites suffered from the 3 Sankai boys for now as well.  *This image is copyright of its original author  *This image is copyright of its original author Credits thank to Siololo Timothy
