Djuma Bush News
June 30, 2009 Bush Lodge Lion highlights at Bush Lodge have mainly included the Styx pride of lions, which are still seen in and around the lodge. The complete pride and nine cubs were seen almost every week; however the Nkahuma lion pride has not been seen for almost a month. Hopefully they will be back soon. Vuyatela General game viewing has been great this month at Vuyatela; especially with the presence of different pride of lions. The other factor attracting these prides of lions is the presence of breeding herds of buffaloes. Two male lions, new to Djuma property were seen feeding on a buffalo kill. The Mapogo pride of lions is back as well; however this time it was only two of them, their faces covered in blood. By the looks of it, they had been in a fight. The Styx pride is trying to settle on the Djuma property even though the competition is strong from the Kuhuma pride that always come and go. The lone Manyeleti boy, male lion, has been seen along the Northern boundary, after a long absence, perhaps he is looking for some company as he has been on his own for some time. Sandy Patch, lone lioness, is still hanging in there with her three cubs that are growing each and every day. She has been successful in killing. The Windmill pride of lions is also pushing deeper to our reserve from Mala Mala. These Sightings have been Viewed at Djuma Bush & Vuyatela https://lionprides.wordpress.com/2009/06/30/djuma-bush-news/ |
