Earlier this month, we reported the presence of two unknown male lions intruding on what we know to be Trilogy lion territory.

Ultimate warlords, the Trilogy male lions, were seen this morning at first light accompanying the Ross Breakaway lionesses on a potential buffalo hunt. These 4 lions are a formidable force, and they were determinedly following a herd of buffalo, which is likely to result in a good meal for the foursome! Africa on Foot and nThambo […]

Ezulwini Game Lodges have come to know a number of lion prides that occupy parts of their traverse in the Balule Nature Reserve, but the Singwe Pride is not usually one of them.

These endearing photos taken of the Ross Breakaway lionesses show their softer side, while an image of one of the females baring her teeth shows her true colours… They are wild cats, of course, and they survive on live prey, but their bond as sisters appears to be unbreakable. We have watched them over the years as they […]

Yesterday we flew in with reports and updates about the Mabande male lion. You remember him? He’s the nomadic male who has spent the past few weeks patrolling and marking new territory. During the course of last week, he had a huge showdown with the Trilogy lions, the dominant males of the area. So, what’s […]

We speculated that things would heat up in the Klaserie with the presence of Mabande, the rather brazen lion who is making his presence known on our turf.
