Undoubtedly some of the most interesting things about lions are the conflicts between coalitions and prides. But it feels like there have been a lull in outright hostilities in the Sabi Sands of late and any takeovers in the past two or three years have been largely bloodless. I think the last conflict between coalitions were the fights between the South Avocas and the Tsalala males. Have there been any other known fights which were more recent than that?

Apart from chasing, not really. Conflicts are not always bloody. Chasing back and forth happens alot or pushing other males without bloodshed. The Bboys have chased alot of lions over the last 3 or 4 years. From the Matshipiri and Southern Avoca to the N'waswitshaka. There was also a mauling of a young male last year in Mala Mala suspected to be the doing of the Bboys. Tinyo Birmingham also injured  a Plains Camp Young Male last year. The N'waswitshaka had their own scrap as well with the the Deleporte Coalition. There have been many pride conflicts over the years mostly by the Kambula Pride. They have killed the Tsalala, Sparta, Styx and beat up Pretty Girl Tsalala and a Mangheni lioness and would have killed them if not for the interference of the Bboys. The Othawa also had a conflict with the Mangheni and the Styx prides. Reply
