N'WASWISHAKA MALE LIONS - THE FUTURE OF SABI SANDS GAME RESERVE

This is an educational video covering the history of a Lion Coalition named "The N'waswishaka Coalition" which consists of 4 Young Brothers. They are currently living in Southern regions of Sabi Sands, mainly in Sabi Sabi Private Game Reserve.
This video would've never been completed without the help of these phenomenal people who have spent years of their lives with these majestic animals.

This coalition is a huge threaten to Northern and Southern Avoca males. A coalition of four members: Amanle, Ubuso, Gore, & Eorenji male! Superb, mighty & legendary!🦁️👑❤️❤️❤️❤️

In a couple of months they will probably be ready to takeover a pride. They have been in Sabi Sands for about a year and 10 months since September 2019 and have gained much experience and have hunted down buffalo well so soon they will be ready for a takeover

According to him, the barren -infertile female had cubs recently, she was never able to produce cubs. She mated with Nguvu on ? Idk the date, but it's documented, and now she's a first time momma ~sshhhh, don't tell the BBoys (wink). 👀 Also, Nguvu has been vocalizing more than the rangers have witnessed in long time,, indicating Nguvu sees a flaw in Tinyo and or Nhena. Hmm, ugh, I love my BBoys.. James T. also mentioned the North part of Londolozi has not been patrolled for ? So now the Nkhumas have been squatting there, unchallenged. Avocas in tow, Anyway, it's worth the read if u haven't yet.
