Vuyela Coalition of Lions Gorge on a Gutsy Giraffe

Vuyela Pride of Lions Male

A coalition of 5 male lions and 1 lioness happen to be the talk of the town in the southern stretches of the Klaserie Private Nature Reserve.

If you recall, there was a sighting of 6 unknown lions eagerly tucking into a giraffe kill, 15 wild dog puppies huddling together on the road, and 3 cheetah relaxing after a recent kill. The lions […]
