I remember when they first arrived in SS, they had two of their sisters for company. Any idea where the two lionesses settled?

Actually, I asked the uploader of that footage and he said her daughter wasn't far from them earlier this morning. At least, we know she's fine.

That's a fantastic update. The Ximhungwe and Tsalala females are doing a good job. Hopefully, in the next years both prides will be a force to be reckoned with

The three older Ntsevu cubs are still alive and well. They have spent the last few weeks in the Sand River, making viewing of them tough. On a cold windy morning, they huddle together to keep warm.

The lighter maned PC male gets a bit too close to his brother mating with the Ximhungwe female and gets a reprimand
