12th August 2000
Tjololo kept true to form having a good rest only leaving the carcass once he’d polished off most of it the remains falling to the hyaena waiting below. Amazingly over the 2 days that he had the carcass the only hyaena that discovered it was the one that initially stole it from him, and it stayed to the last.
Carcass finished Tjololo headed north around midnight and was on the move until dawn. Gladly he was pushing to the very north of his normal territory and then moved downstream along the Sand river.
Held back by the Sand river we could only listen to the awesome fighting of lions that went on for several hours. Presumably they were fighting over a carcass but to be fighting for so long makes me think there may have been other motives.
The action is sure out there with rhino’s fighting last night and lions tonight. Somewhere along the line we have to get lucky. Hopefully the next will be Tjololo handing out a beating to Masuli.
