I think the correct question is "any update on Nsuku ?". As far as I know MalaMala didn't see him lately, and for some reason keeps silent about him. Reply

MALAMALA TODAY: May 20th & 21st.
Over the last 48hrs we recorded 11 sightings of lions involving 3 prides and 2 male coalitions, 8 sightings of 10 different leopards, 1 cheetah as well as several elephant and buffalo sightings. Lions: Members of the Kambula pride accounted for 4 of the sightings. 4 lionesses and the 12 cubs were seen together on both days. The other 2 lionesses were viewed separately. Members of the Gowrie male coalition made up 3 of the sightings. The 2 Avoca males were seen on both days near KK Crossing, where they killed a waterbuck. A lioness from the Styx pride was south of Mlowathi Dam. The Marthly lioness was viewed near her den site in the Manyeleti River. Leopards: The skittish male that’s been hanging around West Street Bridge was viewed with the Nkoveni female on both days - a Kambula lioness chased them up a tree this evening. Another mating pair was found at Charleston North Crossing. The Sibuye female was south of Mlowathi Dam. Both cubs of the Emsagweni female were in Fourways Open Area. The Piccadilly female was at Campbell Koppies. The daughter of the Lookout female caught a Knob-billed duck in Mamba Waterhole. The West Street male was seen near KK Crossing. Cheetah: A female was viewed hunting impala near Mlowathi Dam.

They did not point somethink like "only 2 Gowrie male were seen" like in other update so I think we can presume he is still alive and with his brothers. Reply

This interpretation looks like a wishful thing. In the previous report MalaMala says: "We enjoyed 4 sightings of members of the Gowrie male coalition." Moreover, they never answered to the questions about Nsuku. Reply

Here he is fine with the pride

The video is actual as you can see that Nsuku already has wound at the right side of his back. Reply

After losing Mfumo last year is it possible for BBoys to remain only two? I hope not! But many lions having hip injuries died slowly. Reply

 I agree although the idea of forum is that anyone is giving a little bit from himself, not just waiting till one person  will do anythink and the rest will just watch. Reply

True, that´s why it´s good that you, @Mohawk4, @AbcXyz and some others have been lately active here updating some threads. Lion coalitions are interesting, here are many good posters updating tiger threads. Lion coalition updates have been at some point maybe in a bit passive state, but very good that again posters who make good and interesting postings! Reply
