Do the sub-adult lionessess not show up when their fathers are around?

A good question. A number of times in the last few weeks we have had sightings of the Tsalala pride accompanied by some of the Majingilane, and the sub-adults are consistently absent. I am not sure why this would be so, although we have witnessed aggression between the Scar-nosed male and the two youngsters before.

That is a good question.I just hope we could get to know the answer on why the sub-adults are rarely seen around when the male lions are around.If they were sub-adult males i would have thought because of their nearing to maturity and competition for food the male lions would view them as a threat,but these are females so what could be the problem!

I wonder about the two sub-adults not being there, do they wander off at times or a bit timid around their “Dads”?

Thank you, great shots…love the lions!

I was happy to see a very rare shot of all four Majingilanes together.I can now see they are maturing more and more with especially the first two males in the picture with darker manes.They are now resembling the mapogos which had huge manes apart from Mr.T.They are now getting into their prime.
