On the 3rd june of , we were conducting a game drive with our guests and at a certain stage we saw two lionesses and three cubs resting on the top of a koppie in the reserve. When driving ahead and stopping for a sundowner, a male lion walked past and carried on. We quickly stopped our sundowner and followed the big boy. We found him 200 meters away with two lionesses.

Coming so close to these magical lions was a very special experience on the first game drive the guests ever made!

When we drove off we wanted to check out the two lionesses with the three cubs, and we found them walking on the track in front of us.

To our surprise the two lionesses were accompanied by 7 (!) small cubs. When we stopped the game viewer, the cubs left the group and came checking out the game viewer.

Lions are truly incredible a powerful symbol of community and social bonds in the wild.

What an amazing sighting: lionesses and their beautiful cubs on a sunrise in Serengeti Np

An unforgettable scene in the wild of Serengeti National Park where family, strength, and survival come together.

Mandevu, the last Tintswalo, succumbed due to the injuries of the fight with Mbiri males, Mandevu was still a prime age lion with just 8/9 years old. Now he's with his brothers Ncile, Lambile and the other one who died too young.
