Nhena is not too weak to feed. Theres a video of him resting (obviously eating) on the carcus next to the 2 young ladies growling while Scorro2 is off sleeping. So Nhena is doing OK despite the circumstances.  I can't post video but its doing the rounds on FB. Reply

Tsalala female from a few days ago By Kerry Lee Roberg

"The Marthly lioness is still at it!

It's always such a treat when somebody calls her in on the radio. A few days ago we were two minutes away when she was found moving through a dense block.
We quickly headed there and a few moments later whilst trying to keep visual through the thicket we heard squealing. Everyones favorite lioness was in luck and encountered a female warthog with ten youngsters trotting along - she wasted no time and pounced, although sad for the little warthog family, we all understood what the small meal meant for the Marthly female."

The most impressive male lion in the Sabi Sands Game Reserve at the moment in my opinion, the incredible S8 male.
This definitely has to be one of my favorite images of a male lion, the eye level and contact is just perfect.
What a beast!

With these rumors, they’re also saying Mohawk was seen near a second Male and it was suspected to be Nkuhuma.  


So not sure what will be officially reported and what wil be substantiated… more to follow I guess.

He's left Western Sector, and gone way up north already? Reply
