Lionesses chow down on World Lion Day

We don’t need a World Lion Day to celebrate, talk about, or post about lions, because we’re obsessed like that, but today brings attention to these epic creatures like no other day of the year. One of the most terrifying thoughts in the world is the idea of an earth without lions. Aside from the sadness […]
The Ross Pride is back and stalking buffalo!

When we were just getting our knickers in a twist about the sensational week of lion sightings we’ve had (ending in the possible new alliance of 3 lionesses on our traverse), we stumbled upon the original Ross Pride!

And he was caught […]
VIDEO: Ross Pride Attempts Warthog Kill

The Ross Pride has returned to their old territory now that Chuck and Larry (adult Ross Pride males) have grown up and been ousted into the wild world on their own.

The Return of the Ross Pride

You read right… The Ross Pride is back in old territory, deep in the Klaserie! It is with bated breath that we post this announcement, because we all know this is the wild and anything can happen. The 3 Trilogy lions that chased this pride away over a year ago are a formidable trio, but […]
Hungry Ross Pride Lionesses Make ANOTHER Kill
