So proud of them lionesses, their future was always uncertain even while Dark Mane was still alive and they were travelling all over with their brothers, seen interacting and running from pretty much every dominant coalition. S8’s Talamati Pride were looking much better off atp. Cut forward a year and some months, and now they have a stable territory with cubs and couldn’t have picked better fathers. Aside from the supposed litter from one of the lionesses straight after entering Southern Sabi Sands, they haven’t lost a single cub, long may that continue.

Yes, they have lost a cub.  There was an altercation with the Southern Pride and one cub was killed, and the mother was slightly injured.  I think it was one of the cubs in the youngest litter.

Interesting, I think I had heard of the Msutlu females killing a cub from Southern Pride at one point, but never themselves losing a cub.

Yes, turn around is fair play, I reckon.  It was posted last month on one of the FB pages.  It was the one with the 4 cubs who ended up limping with bite marks to her hindquarters.  Since it was a month ago, I'm sure she recovered well since we haven't heard more negative news.  'Wild Lions of Africa' page.
