LatestThe Kapunji pack has a new leader. The cubs still have nothing to fear, because the lion is their father. The balance of power has also changed in the other packs. The dominant Njaa male has returned and proves to be a valuable support for the group. Two lone lions appear in the baobab forest. This means that there are now two displaced young lions in the valley. When they meet, they kill their first buffalo together: this experience bonds them together forever.
‘The Lions Rule’ is the saga of three lion families linked together by a strange, charmed place called the Glade: a beautiful oasis in Ruaha National Park where there is always water. The Glade is the territory of two old lionesses and their cubs. The Glade pride can bring down an adult giraffe – a remarkable skill. A magical Baobab forest spreads out beyond the Glade. This is the territory of the Baobab pride. They are the largest pride in all of Ruaha. The third pride are drifters – lean, mean and ruthless. They are the Njaa. The Njaa follow the buffalo. The herd is their territory and they are experts in the dark art of the buffalo kill. All three prides are lead by lionesses; there are no adult males in residence. This will play a major role in their fates
