Lions of Sabi Sands

Hope Blondie’s legs are holding up! That’s far and I really wish they weren’t roaring back which is huge mistake.
As people have said, the N’W males followed Avocas because they are the males they encountered first. They didn’t just follow their roars but their scent. We’ve seen enough chases to know how important scent is when lions are looking for each other and no, when they are on a mission, aren’t going to run in a completely opposite direction to answer some other roar.

They were roaring apparently at Camp before the Nwaswitshaka came west. And that does make sense but the Birmingham Males would be the ones whose scent is in the south, not the Avocas. The Avocas scent would be more North, in order to smell the Avocas, you'd have to track their scent which wouldn't be in the south. Like I said, it's just odd to me, we will never know what their intentions were. 
As @WildRev already posted in Nwaswitshaka thread, Amahle and Gore where seen "exploring" in Londolozi, prob few days ago:

Based of newest Londolozi post, Bboys are lately not seen in Londolozi whatsoever, so maybe Nwaswitshaka just didn't have any scent to pick up :  *This image is copyright of its original author A lot of people/guides are throwing term "Bboys territory" in Londolozi recklessly, except very southeast of Londolozi, rest is not anymore Bboys territory in Londolozi.

I dont think they will go further north, they will prob be returning back south, direct towards Bboys and Kambulas with cubs.. 
They seem to be roughly following the same route as last time.
The Kambulas and BBoys have enough space to avoid them. So nothing will probably happen. We may see some mating though.
The three mums are enjoying their meal- everyone is stuffed. It has been great to see them and their 7 playful cubs. Hopefully we will see more of them in the near future.
