It has gotten to where just about every time I open the site, I am wondering what has happened to which pride/coalition. I would imagine that such turmoil has happened before, perhaps some of the folks who have been following lions for a lot longer than myself would have more information on other such eras, but this year has been difficult, without a doubt.

Well, is pretty much every year, more or less, lions will die, get killed every year. 

2021 was more "shocking" in Sabi Sands if you ask me, demise of Sparta pride, then sudden deaths of OM, Styx male and Tsalala female hit pretty hard.

This year is mostly Othawas having bad year..

2022 started badly for me and has not let up:  many many stories I’ve been close with 

Mhangeni Sub lost; then Bus, then Kupona, Mhangeni lioness, Limper, Talamati Stompie, PE, Aunties, Old Styx, Styx Boys, then blondie, Maybe Silvereye, Maybe last Mhangeni SubAdult then Sassy’s situation.   Yes, every year it’s losses, but it seems it’s been much more unrelenting in 2022.  

I’m of course only speaking w Sabi Sand, which is where I follow closest. Reply
