Family Reunion

With them is Rosa, mother of the three Cubs.

So this is the m right here on the edge of the bank in front of us.

She’s waiting for her sister Zuri, who’s following behind.

They’ve left their cubs hidden in a Thicket.

It’s risky, but it’s vital.

The sisters take time to renew the Family Ties before introducing their cups.

They haven’t spent much time with the pride since giving birth 2 months ago.

This is their chance to reconnect.

The stronger the bonds between them, the better Protected Their Cubs will be when they finally join the pride.

This is a fantastic site.

I mean this is amazing.

Just to see so many lines together and just comfortably rubbing against, enjoying bit of a slow, lazy morning while the mothers are enjoying their break.

The Cubs are home alone.

They know instinctively the way to stay safe is to keep hidden.

Zuri’s Cubs are doing what they’re told and keeping out of sight, but Rose’s Plucky Cub spotty is getting bored.

It doesn’t take his sisters much persuading to to follow along.

Unsupervised play is the most fun and the most dangerous.

Elephants lose their carves to adult Lions, so if they come across any Cubs, they won’t hesitate to kill them.

This 5ton elephant could crush them in a single step.

The Hunt

Instinct kicks in Back to the thicket just in time.

As Darkness descends, Aa and the Hollywood Pride prepare to hunt in their Terr Ter to the north.

They’ve had nothing to eat since they were attacked 4 days ago.

Everyone’s hungry.

Usually Ava takes the lead, but she’s lagging behind.

As the pride moves into the open, the injured a hangs back.

She’s not fit enough to hunt and her presence would hinder the group’s chances without their leader.

The Hollywood lionesses seem unsure of what to do.

It’s Nova, the youngest, who steps up to the mark under cover of night.

Lions have the upper hand over their prey.

A hair has no idea that aa’s only 10 ft away, but she needn’t worry.

Aa is waiting for a larger meal to come.

Auku head straight towards Nova.

The other lionesses Corral the parey and flush it straight to Zena.

It’s the Moment of Truth for Aa as a bystander to the hunt.

Will the others let her join in no hesitation.

She’s one of them.

This is just what the Hollywoods need to help get their strength back.

The Nomads

They’ve proved what a strong team they are, even without Aa to lead them, and they prove to Aa they can and will look after her.

It’s been 5 days since the traveling band of Nomads invad Ed from the north and attacked the Hollywood females.

They’ve been laying low since then, but now they’re on the move and heading south.

The four Bachelors are crossing the border from the Hollywoods into Mk territory.

This is the first time they’ve set foot on Mk Tur.

Immediately they begin to claim it for themselves.

Their arrival couldn’t have come at a worse time for Sarabi, the three other lionesses in her Hunting Party.

They’re still separated and far north of the rest of the Mk Pride, Sam arrives to find them unknowingly heading straight towards the nomads.

After attacking the Hollywoods.

There’s no telling what the nomads will do.

One of the K females makes a brave move.

She starts flirting outrageously.

The others are quick to join in.

It’s a clever move.

The nomads are too mesmerized to show any aggression.

It’s possible that the females are in estas, but it’s more likely they’re just pretending to be.

It’s a strategy lioness has used to prevent potential attacks.

Sam thinks it’s not just their own skins they’re saving.

It might be that these females are actually distracting them, keeping them from going south.

Um so keeping them away from the Cubs, keeping keeping them away from the inevitable conflict between the punks and you- very interesting over the course of the day, the Mk females mate with the nomads numerous times, keeping them occupied for 8 hours.

These females are really trying hard to keep the boys busy.

And um, the boys look really tired.

Only Thor shows no signs of flagging.

But the female he’s taken a shine to has finally had enough try as she might.

She just can’t shake him off.

Eventually he lets her get away.

It’s a brief rest bite.

They’ll mate around the clock for 2 or 3 days, just as they would if she were genuinely in Eus.

But the lionesses can’t keep up the ruse forever.

When the nomads lose interest, there’ll be nothing to stop them heading farther into Mk territory.
