They’ve made it very clear they don’t care about that pride ever since bigger PCM chased them from Othawas. I mean Tumbela was chased once by PCMs and has been left alone since, nothing is stopping him from going back to Mhangenis either.

Yea but it doesnt matter if they dont care for Mhangenis, theres a big difference between having 1 unhealthy/submissive/harmless nomad hanging in your area, and having a coalition of 4 up and coming 4 year olds..

Theres no way PCMs would allow a coalition of 4 males to establish themselves inside their borders, which is basically everything west of western Londolozi.

When PCMs sniff them out, youngsters are out, being with Mhangenis or no.

Even then I don’t think it matters much, PCMs can’t chase them out the West if they decide they’re staying, it’s both simply too big and we’ve not seen the PCMs put in the necessary time and effort to try out any of these other nomads hence them all returning. 

It’s a shame cos a young coalition of 4 would be perfect for Mhangenis and Othawas too, they still need to grow some more obviously to even try claim territory from PCMs, but I hope they stick in Sabi Sands. Very tough situation for Mhangenis, a coalition that would in the future be able to protect them, but this very second may be the reason the youngsters perish.

I do think Monwanas will eventually feel the pressure and leave, explore other parts but it will be more of the same, very experienced duo with no mating females. Ndzengas only have two prides which they fully claim, Gijimas only real weakness is Styx Pride / Southern Pride which these boys would have to go through Msutlu Pride which is who Gijimas usually hang with. Sand River Pride with Nkhulus.. I mean ye not a great idea. 

So if they are to stick around, realistically they’re either gonna try become dominant in the North or West. Would not be surprised if they keep returning West and trying to bide their time. Reply
