Lil history lesson on the Northern Pride from as much as I’ve heard, after Sekekama and TornNose abandoned it, a new coalition started to take control of the pride and mate with the lionesses, either two or three males I can’t exactly remember. Anyways, one of these males killed its own cubs and this was documented in Savage Kingdom, whether this was because he had done less mating than his brothers or controlled another pride and was never as familiar with the same lionesses, it’s unknown.

It was largely reported that these males were most likely chased out the area by no other than Sekekama and TornNose. This created a power shift and left this pride vacant once again, which was perfect for the Rebel Coalition, older brothers of the Renegades to takeover. They didn’t rule this area for long as they split up but successfully sired some offspring and that helped the pride avoid becoming extinct, the same daughters of these boys began mating with the Renegades and helped this pride get back on top. Now a powerhouse, with the strongest coalition in Savuti as their protectors and hopefully it stays this way.

Good Lord, those are some huge cats!

I agree, I think they’re the most impressive coaltion I know of, in terms of size and the area they control and have been controlling since a young age. Reply
