The Charleston males and all five Southern Pride females were united this morning. They were on the trail of a herd of buffalo, but decided to rest once it became too hot.

Seen on safari: The Charleston males were found this morning scent marking on the reserve.  The two males seem to be in very good condition and were walking around with pride, despite the hanging tooth! Could this spell trouble for the Fourways males? We spent a great deal of time with the Southern Pride females this morning as they moved through the reserve, presumably in an attempt to avoid the Charleston boys.
We saw Warthog Wallow again last night and it is clear that she has severe damage to her left eye, possibly from a fight with another leopard.  This will prove very challenging for her in the future.

Yes I know that he's just 9 years old,But perhaps being a lone male be always is on risky and a target to other big coalitions... without count that if he suffer of stress he can loss much mane
