All members there, Fourways female, 2 N'ws girls, 2 sub Gijima girls and 5 cubs.

This is one pride I surely wished we got more frequent updates about. This might be the greatest rebuilding of a pride we've seen, by a single female. Incredible stuff!

Agreed -  unbelievable story!  I do wish Gijimas would see them more often.  But this is comeback story of Sabi Sands -  Lets hope Ottawas do the same.

We can add Tsalala to that list, along with Tiyele as well. I, personally, believe Tiyele is the most urgent, due to her advanced age, she might only have one more litter in her. Othawas are critical, as you mentioned, as well, their pride never had a chance to recover from the Mapogos.

Hi I believe this topic was up before. If Talamatie lioness is about eight or nine maybe ten she still has time although; if Talamatie lioness has cubs time and energy, and love for her cubs to sub adults maybe two or three years. I would like to see Talamatie lioness with other lionesses, friends a partner. 

I was going to say I wish all lions good and best. I also wanted to say I would like to see the Ximunguwe lioness succeed. Ximunguwe lioness was a good friend to Gingerella and now her cubs are doing good her daughters are doing very good. I would like to see Gingerella, plain camp, and sisters all help Ximunguwe lioness and her cubs. If two male cubs it will be interesting, to see hopefully to adulthood.

Yes, Tiylele is indeed young enough to possibly have more than one litter, but given how long it has been since the subs perished, I'd argue that she may not get a chance to have more than one litter.

Ye Tiyelele has had so much misfortune, with no coalition really claiming the most northern parts of Sabi Sands, looks like she didn’t conceive with Kambulas either. She needs a youngish coalition to come in, so that they can give her the attention she deserves, before they ultimately make a move for a bigger pride. NK and Khanya would actually be a great coalition for her, but they never really venture that far north, they may not be young, well NK isn’t, but they would likely focus on her. Monwanas possibly too if they were to come back.

I was going to say the Kambula male lion would be good, but Kambula male lions have been moving around. They would be four young male lions. 

Kambula lions are distantly related, the Talamatie male lion maybe brother and sister. Reply
