I know them running into Kambulas is such a rare incident but they can’t stay fending off all these different males, if they are to stick around. Losing the cubs is truly already a tragedy but let’s hope all the females can hang on. As bad as it sounds, cubs are dispensable.

That now makes it 1 female and 1 male cub believed to be dead right?

Losing cubs and subs is "normal" for every pride, even most strongest and successfull ones.

We know that these stuff will happen, theres no pride who can raise all cubs to adulthood.

Just in recent years, prides like Talamatis, NKuhumas, Styxs had 10+ cubs/subs, only about half (or less) of them reached, or will reach adulthood. Kambulas where a bit more successfull with Bboys offspring, but they also lost few subs, and all of 2nd generation.

Obiviously we want that all cubs survive, but thats not realistic in the wild.

If Mhangenis can get half of them to adulthood, thats success, especially if there will be few females. Reply
