Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Thanks for the information on the lionesses involved in this. I saw the clip a little earlier but wasn't sure whom was whom. It's good to see the male with the club/twisted foot back with his brothers and the pride again as well.


Where did you see the video?

Don't have Instagram so cheers!!

I remember a Mala Mala ranger mentioning that a Kambula lioness killed the cubs of a less dominant lioness... I'm inclined to think it was potentially K6.

Maybe.
Well, already there are 9 lionesses in the main kambula pride. If this young one would join, it would makes them 10.
Plus soon there would be baby boom in this pride.
Most probably we will see many breakaways of kambula pride in 2 yrs down the line

@DARK MANE would be correct.    It’s 4 original Kambulas….and six of their female offspring …..five already are with them.  

But seems a moot point ATM.   The 6th girl was seen back with her brothers today….thanks to @lionuk for this nugget.

Yupp.
But 5 young females ( born in 2018) are now with nwaswitshaka males.
And the youngest one ( b.2019) may be trying to join too

Apparently missing since last year, but with all this splitting in few groups and chaos with Ndhzenga males, we couldn't see if they are all accounted for.

I don’t want to clog up this thread with too much Kambula business (maybe admin can relocate) but there were at least 11 (of 12) Kambulas accounted for on 31 August.   In this sighting of the Pride Core w N’waswitshaka  on the eve of their attack on the Styx Pride, we can count 7 lionesses.  This was when two sub females were still with the boys .   One of those girls joined the core on 30 September.  

So on 31 August we can account for 7 (core); 2 (Subs) and 2 (breakaways)

The reserves and their reports have had a torrid time keeping track.   They themselves made some miscounts in recent reports.   That final 12th girl  has always been the one I couldn’t find but thought that maybe was denning at the time of the beach photo
