There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

If thats Styx female, based of nose color, it should be adult Bboys one, meaning she lost her cubs, again.

people on Facebook said she hasn't given borth yet and could be faking to distract him (Nkuhlu).
But i think you guys would know better, so did she have cubs recently?

To be honest I think it would be better for all the lions involved if the Styx girls (or at least some of them) went with the Nkuhlus, as the Gijimas have more than enough lionesses and cubs to defend already. And the 4 or 5 lionesses of the Sand River pride were never going to keep the Nkuhlus occupied for long. It would have been better if all the Styx had mated with the Nkuhlus as now they might split, but I don't think the Gijimas could have defended 3 Southern, 4 Musuthlu, and 6 Styx lionesses, and all their cubs.

I don't think it matters much, Styx Pride only really started encountering Nkhulus since being seen in KNP, more so the younger females anyways, so unless they were to stay in KNP permanently, Gijimas are the better choice, for now. Gijimas can't keep Nkhulus out their territory and the same on the other side, so these meetings between prides and unknown males will, occasionally, continue to happen. As long as Gijimas keep their territory, the daughters sired by them in either of their 3 prides will most likely breakaway from their main pride and the best choice for them would be Nkhulus, as long as they're still a formidable force, so it's a win - win scenario. Ofc going forward, Nkhulus will want more females this very second, not in a few years, as in a few years time they could either try control all 3 prides Gijimas have, or try take Kambula and Ntsevu.
