After not being seen for many many months, the pride showed themselves again in August. They were found on a large buffalo kill that they reportedly stole from the three sub-adult Eyrefield males. Never the less, the entire pride showed up to feed and we got to see the cubs for the first time. This pride has been taken over by the two Kruger males, who are also the cubs' fathers. Interesting to note was that the sub-adult female who is not yet two years old, is still with the pride and has been fully accepted by the two large males. Unlike when the Manyelethi males took over in the north, there was no bloodshed and she has lived a relatively peaceful life so far. The pride fed on the buffalo for two days, and then rested on the eastern bank of Calabash crossing on the third, before moving off MalaMala once again. Hopefully we will get to see more of this pride in the future, as the two males seem keen on moving more into central Charleston.
