[Music]

He just looks ready for a fight; this is still her territory. Good afternoon and welcome everybody from all over the world, wherever you might be tuning in to this the 16th episode of Safari Live. My name is Steve Faulconbridge; I'm joined on camera by VM, the Valley de Beers. Please pop in your questions or comments down below. We have had an amazing week so far. I've come back from leave, and the week has just been absolutely splendid.

Let's go and see how our characters have been performing this week down here in Juma. This week, the little chief, Husana, kept his usual activities balanced between the game-rich Gallagher and boy at Tila pans. The wild dog family arrived and rumor from the north in the early week, keeping to the west of Gallagher pan. They exited into buffer looking for the night but returned the following morning south of our camp. An unknown female leopard moved into Juma from the east; the tracks led us to Cheng Anna who appeared north of where Telepan, the Duke, and this unknown female moved together.

As deadly Eastern to Torchwood, the Oklahoma pride made an appearance in our southwestern boundary, and a pair of hyena den sites has been discovered in the heart of Juma. Up in the Mara Triangle, the team were able to locate two Kenya in the south close to the Tanzanian border. The sausage tree pride was not far away to the west while Kinky Tail, away from the pride, was seen even further west with one of the old Anya pay ik males. The North clan kept the usual domain west of the Mara River.

We are going to be spending this entire two hours going through everything of excitement from wild dogs for Sana, a new hyena den site on the property, as well as all the excitement that's happening up in the north with the Maasai Mara. Talking about the Maasai Mara, we would really like to be going up there shortly because not only do we have lots of action here during the week that we are playing back for you, things are happening live in the moment. If we do go all the way up there, it can be very exciting to see some male lions interacting with David Ghee, all the way up in the beautiful and pristine Masai Mara.

Welcome to the Masai Mara triangle, and we are in Kenya. How lucky to start with a pair of lions here, a male and a female under some shade of some torturous tree. We have been following these lions since this morning, and as usual, my name is David, and my camera is Manu.

Good afternoon! What a dramatic day it has been. We have been following this lion since morning, and the one you see on the right, for those who have never joined us before, is called Kapali. The females come from another pride of lions that is called... You know, that is a clear sign of a meeting or female in East Rose, and we might be lucky just to start with us tomorrow, and we might see the mating.

It's just a matter of time before that happens. The reason why maybe the male could not be interested at the moment is he is very tired. He has been involved with two fights today, one in the morning and another one this afternoon. Great temperatures we got here in the Mara, about 27 degrees Celsius and 87 degrees Fahrenheit. Remember, this is a very interactive safari drive you are doing, and you're welcome to ask as many questions as you may wish in the comments you may have.

Please tweet and send them through #safarilive, and don't forget to keep following us in the YouTube chat. It’s time for Kapali, the male, to take a break. As I said earlier, he had some two epic battles - one in the morning and one in the afternoon. The two young males that came around that we have never seen before and our guests, me and Manoir, and the two males were nomadic. Ideally, that's very typical for lions. When they won’t recover from an area or pride of lions’ area, they will definitely muscle out with the existing males or the coalition there.

He fully belongs to what you call the sausage tree coalition; he's in general the largest in size and stronger than the other two boys he is always with. So these two nomadic males, they knew the target and they knew who to deal with among us the three; they chose carefully because he is the guy in charge in the morning, Kapali.

So one off and I think he was suicide. I saw him running for about two miles non-stop, dealing with the other one. The yawn, that’s a great question. Well, I'll tell you. Kapali was chasing a young lion, which we think was nomadic, is a male lion. I think that's the one they're not... that was one particular one. This is the second that was just chased maybe another one hour ago. But Diane, the one that was just away, was a pneumatic male that I have never seen, and my guess is, because I’m based in Kenya in the Mara Triangle, that somatic male came from a national park called Serengeti in the country south of Kenya called Tanzania.

So, it’s a male I’ve never seen before. Apparently, he had half a tail, and Kapali dealt with him accordingly this morning. Now, one other male that we have just seen from a distance stayed back with his female here and have been mating the whole day. Kapali came and said about a hundred metres away from them under some shade of a Gdynia tree cooling off.

Depending on the age of the female, old male or more age being the factor is always anything between 5 to 10 days, the mating will continue. Anything 5 to 10 days, they’ll be mating and the first few days we have seen the mating like 60 or 70 times a day, and as the honeymoon continues, you know the frequency fades out by Loulou. Anything 5 to 10 days, we have seen lions. The longest I would say they would stay together would be about 10 days. At times, it's only five days; meetings over and then they go separate ways.

So after Kapali came from the shed this afternoon, he thought now he was really energized and ready to face the other male, and it did not take long before he saw the other male off, and now he’s happily rejoined or gotten, you know, his female back. I think we’ll keep staying here and watch how it’s going to play out, but my other brother in South Africa, Steve-o, is hunting for other predators.

Thank you very much, David. Indeed, I believe the dance moves are impeccable up in the Mara; maybe Senzo needs to go back up there and learn a couple. I know he knows most of the dance moves around. So, how fantastic is that to be seeing all sorts of mating going on and nomads being chased by dominant males? Something I really miss a lot is spending time with lions. I will be heading up to the Mara in about a week, so I will be with lions soon.

No doubt in there; multitudes are so exciting to be learning all about them up there. But this afternoon, myself and VM are trying to see if we can find that wild dog family. They were up before Sook this morning, and possibly there might come down; there might be a movement down back in towards Juma. We're just doing a little bit of a patrol up to the north to see if any activity does come down. It's been very special to have them this week, very, very special indeed, as the new puppies are following around the adults, and the adults are having all sorts of interaction with them, with bringing them little presents.

I got my first view of the wild dog puppies early on Wednesday morning, or six pups playfully pulled that what turned out to be a Steenbok head. After much play from pups and adults alike, the pack settled on some shade to escape the heat. All of a sudden, one of the adult males ran off after a skulking hyena who dared come too close away from the protection of their den.

The answers will be faced with many challenges to survival in this harsh environment. The puppies learned two valuable lessons: namely, the importance of strength in numbers and an attack can be the best form of defense. So incredible to have found them, and I think my second day back from leave, wild dog puppies; first time in my life seeing them, and we've got to spend some amazing time with them the entire morning that day, in fact, and then the entire evening as well, as they moved to and fro, and how.

As those little youngsters playing with a little prize, the adults have brought them a Steenbok head, which is something that they do. Once they devour kill somewhere further away, they often bring something back just to show them. We’ve been out and these are the groceries we've provided for you. But at the same time, they also regurgitate it; it's an enormous amount of their carcass for them because they can't lose that to a hyena or a lion once it's in their tummy. But then they bring the prize back, maybe to show the youngsters, "Well, this is what meat you’re eating today." So, I suppose they can recognize it next time and be like, "Oh, I quite enjoyed a little bit of that."

So track their female leopard coming in from the north. We had some tracks this morning of Tiny just down the road here, which we ran out of time to try and follow, but maybe we’ll have some luck a little bit later. She has been absent this week or maybe we've just been too busy with other things. But so fantastic to be with the wild dogs, and they have been in the north, as I said. So hopefully we'll get to them, but another character who is on the show every single week, Sydney himself, has gone out this afternoon, and he's found the little chief.

Look at that! This is beautiful. You can see Husana is now trying to leak a very fresh kill. We are so very lucky; we just got here shortly after the kill when he was dragging the kill up into the tree. You can see now he is looking for a better spot at the moment, and there are some hyenas. We just got arrived now about a second ago. I can see they are looking at him; you can see that he is now also concentrating much more towards this study.

It's looking very much tired because killing an animal is a very big job for an individual. When he went up to that tree, he went up very fast. I could see that something was coming. He saw the hyenas and decided to run up into this tree in order to avoid competition. A very, very good afternoon, and welcome to episode 19 of the Safari Live. My name is Sydney, former enemy Kosy. I am traveling with Senzo, who is my camera operator this afternoon, and we are going to try by all means to give you the best experience ever.

For your questions and comments, you can follow us on Twitter, #safarilive. You can also follow us on YouTube chat stream. It seems like today is going to be a very interesting day because my plan was to look for Husana as well as visiting the new den. This is amazing; look at that! You can see that the kill is still very much fresh. It is a female Impala, and now I can see that Husana is gaining some little bit of strength and is trying by all means to move the carcass far up.

He has not even yet started feeding on this Impala; he has just been successful just now. We have just missed this action, and guess who informed me about this? A little squealer is the one who was giving quite a lot of alarm calls. As I was looking around, I managed to see Husana moving away, holding a kill right in his mouth. He’s trying to open the stomach of this little Impala, but it seems to be very difficult.

Rosina, I can guarantee you now, if a hyena comes here now, Husana is not going to be able to defend his kill because I can see that it looks very much tired. But now you can see that he's still at the beginning stage of eating these carcasses. He's trying now to take off all the hairs; he's using his tongue in order to scrap all the hairs. The tongue of this kind of character is very coarse and consists of quite a lot of spines, which helps them to get rid of this hair.

He doesn't want to get quite a lot of hair balls in the stomach, so you can see there is quite a lot of open hairs there now. While he's licking, at the moment, you can see some of the hairs are now starting to fly away. Look at that; he's doing a great job. Look at that. So, when he’s doing this, what he’s doing now sometimes is he absorbs; he even swallows some of these hairs, and these hairs are going to the stomach and develop a very nice ball. Afterwards, you will see them in the form of hairballs; sometimes you can see them as a very long string coming out.

Look at that; he nearly lost his carcass, and the hyenas are just here. I am just looking at where his hyenas are; I can’t see them anymore here. Catherine, what attracts the hyenas and the other predators after a kill is quite a lot of factors. One, when the animal is dying, it does give a distress call. When the animal is giving a call such as that, it is when the predators in the area start to come and investigate. Apart from that, some of these animals, such as hyenas, are so gifted in such a way that they can be able to detect from a sense of smell. They can easily detect blood.

So, you can see that these animals have quite a lot of things to do after a kill. You can see before we even start opening this animal, we must have to get rid of the hairs, which is quite a very long process, and all these need a lot of energy. So imagine if someone comes here after losing quite a lot of energy like this: is he going to manage to defend this carcass? Definitely not; he won't have enough energy to defend this.

So, I can see how that carcass is lying there; it might fall at any time. Earlier this week, we saw Zara trying to catch some food. Earlier this week, we found Husana trying his luck with a game of cat and mongoose.

[Music]

Our favorite little chief was up to his usual curious antics and was chasing some terrified mongoose around a fallen tree. They did their best to avoid his claws while shouting their disapproval at the big head bouncing above them. Unlike Husana's success from last week around the Juma pen, he did not manage to catch the little creatures and eventually gave up and moved on. The terrified mongoose made each of these kind of prey as used to catch these big animals, but the small animals are confusing him a lot, as they were going inside the burrows, one after each other, they were just going just like that.

That was amazing! So, you can see now he’s eating the tail, and the tail has got quite a lot of hairs. I’m sure he’s gonna cut that last part of the tail. Chris is not going to get rid of all the hairs from this animal; he's just taking the accessible parts. Once the animal is opened, he will now consider it from the intestine, and some of this skin will still be there. It’s still gonna eat some of these things; some will be processed and come back in the form of hairballs.

So, you can see that Husana is now improving his hunting skills, which is very good. And a lack of the fact that he is very fast, he doesn’t want the other species, such as the hyenas, to come and disturb him. You can see those hind legs; they are so very powerful, so they can be able to propel this animal when he is lifting up this carcass.

Look at that; he's battling to arrange this carcass very well. So I hope he’s not going to lose this carcass. Now, let's go to the Masai Mara; David has got another big cat.

David is having the lions at the moment, not sure if the lions are sleeping or they are showing some of the afternoon activities. Husana was made very fast, little punk, you see in South Africa a couple of months ago. But now, from a distance, I do not know whether you can see very well, but I would say down to the left of your screen somewhere there there’s a little pad of something that looks like a lion, and that is the dejected loser who was dealt with perpendicularly by Kapali the male.

And he's watching from a distance as Kapali is having the best of his life. Between the time you saw me last and now, Kapali actually has emitted two times. Will you believe that? I think he's very frustrated, and I'm sure both of them, the direction they are looking at is where that other male is, and I'm sure Kapali wants to send some clear message to the nomadic male: I'm in charge here; I’ve bitten you away; you go, and I'm doing what you're doing, and I’ll do it even better.

Not sure what the female is thinking; as I said earlier, I think she was torn between Kapali and the younger male that had all but was flexing muscles to fight. He pulled it off. So what will happen? I guess yes, they will stay together for quite some time, and I think I had a question from Loula. How long will they be together as they mate? And I said 5 to 10 days. So, these particular ones here, it could be if Kapali just came in, he might want to extend it just to give a bad feeling to the other male, and they may not even move from where they are; they may stay there and keep on showing the other male, I'm going to mate with this female here; this is my area, and nobody's in charge apart from me.

In the morning, I was looking for the two youngsters that formed the sausage tree coalition, and they're nowhere to be seen. If you have been here, my guess is Kapali would have an easier fight getting rid of the two males together. The first episode or the first drama in the morning was just chase and face in order to host his kill. But it’s difficult; I saw that he nearly lost that kill twice.

You can see now that kill is falling; slowly falling. If you look at how he’s balancing with a big stem from this tree and an animal falling on the other side, there, this is quite a big animal already. I can see that he's starting to open to get all of the intestines; it’s not easy for this cat to hold these suckers against the tree. Maybe that is a better spot.

Now, that is my wish as well as I can see that he lost quite a lot of energy. If any other animal comes here and takes this, he is going to be very hungry. So I think he must have an opportunity to reap the benefits after such a very job well done.

So now, let's go back to Steve for some updates.

How fantastic from Husana, you little chief, you little devil! Another Impala, but the lions stole his impala last night, folks, and well he’s not going to be outdone! His guys just caught himself another one, so we've been checking for those wild dogs to see if they're coming in, but at the same time, we also tried to see if we can pick up on any tracks of the pride that we were following this morning. They gave us a little bit of a runaround; I’m not sure exactly where they've gone to, but while we’re searching, we’re constantly on the lookout for tracks.

It’s such a beautiful afternoon, a very nice 31 degrees Celsius, about 86 degrees Fahrenheit. It’s wonderful to be out, but the excitement of the week did not end with their first sighting of the dogs. We managed to follow them the night before; they disappeared into the north, and Subaru committed ourselves since they were very fortunate to find them again in the morning. Once again, with the prize for the youngsters, the air was filled with excitement when we located the pack in the heart of Juma. The pups squabbled over a prize, a brood nerds out from a recent kill by the adults.

After much deliberation of some serious investigation that also took the answers to the kill, judging by the nervous approach, it is possible that this is the first actual carcass that the pups have been to. The adults wasted no time digging in; as the pups approached, that also taught them some important table manners after the meal. The entire pack engaged in some rather entertaining play, seeing who could be king of the termite mountain!

How incredible was that? I was driving along not expecting to see wild dogs that morning. The morning before, people had sent a request said, "We'd love to see what have dogs and sausage tree," and we found them. Then the next morning, people sent the same request; I said, "What are the chances?" There’s not much of a chance of finding them again! And then lo and behold, traveling lights just saw this frittering whitetail through the bush as one of the adults was running directly towards—well, in this direction. We moved in, we found the puppies; the adults had obviously been and made a kill; they killed a female Impala, and they’d obviously disemboweled her and brought the young fetus, which is quite sad to see, but they brought that back as a prize to the youngsters, who then played with it and ripped it apart and just did their thing.

Eventually, after some serious attention and movement, thoughts and deliberation, the adults going backwards, forwards, up and down, checking in every direction, they eventually took the puppies one by one to the scene of the crime. The puppies approached very cautiously, very tentatively, and we can only assume, not having seen it before with these ones, that it might be the first actual kill that they’ve been taken to.

And that else go off ahead, and make the kill. The youngsters kind of stay back, and then the adults, once they've made a kill, come back and get them after gorging themselves, of course, and regurgitating their meat for the youngsters, as obviously more meat to be had at the scene of the crime. And so they went back with the youngsters who had pretty much eaten everything they drew—Gurjit ate it, so there was not much left to the adults.

They got into it with apps Aleut interest, and the youngsters, first time at a proper kill, had to learn that there's different table manners at the kill than there is when they're begging. When the adults come back, there's very different table manners.

Paul, you want to know where the dogs are dating? Well, I believe it was up in the Manya Lady, which is sort of passed before Sux and just on to the left. The Manya Lady also joins to the Kruger to the north of it and at Samaharpati, so sort of northerly, north-west of where we are in Juma—not farther. I’m saying five K’s or maybe six K’s at the most kilometers, so, to naff three miles maybe? But I’m not sure exactly; we don’t get the opportunity to go that far north, so we’re not sure.

But we heard about it; we were very excited! I saw a little bit of a spill on the show of Taylor with the wild dogs, and I thought, "What are the chances of me seeing them?" And then, first, pretty much first morning out there, they were! The eagle eyes of a VM spotted them sitting in the open on a termite mound. We moved in, and there was a Steenbok head, and then chasing off the hyena, which was so special to see the pups learning so many lessons.

Well, the migration, I don’t think, is completely over. Scott is still looking at animals that are moving around in front of his Velda Biased in the Mora. Hogs came back to visit on Juma. Wonder how long it's been since they were last there before they brought their pups along. Look at all these wildebeests; this is probably the highest concentration of wildebeests I've seen this migration, and it's absolutely wonderful to see.

Now that's just a tiny little portion of them, believe it or not; we'll try and show you a few more later. My name's Scott; some teams up with James Kymo Emory on camera today, and we've come into this area because we are hoping to find the sausage tree pride. There are some new additions that we are hoping that we are gonna find today.

Why don’t you take a look at our first ever glimpse of them earlier in the week? After much anticipation, finally, the missing member of the sausage tree pride reunited with two lioness. We had our first ever sighting of these two little cuties; we couldn't have asked for a more magical setting for our first introduction to them, and the golden light made it that much better.

Not only that, but also the fact that they were on the move and the two little fur balls were in a very playful mood.

[Music]

Even mama was getting caught up in the antics.

[Music]

Interestingly, in the short time we spent with them, it was immediately evident that one of the cubs was more poor than the other. I also managed to get a few glimpses below their little tails, and it seems to me like they could well be two young boys. Let's hope these two little guys make it through this dangerous stage of their lives, little critters!

Sadly, we haven't seen them since that day. I just like to kind of fill you in—this is where the sausage tree pride hangouts until about three months ago. They were almost always in this very kind of small area, relatively speaking, and then all of a sudden, some new line disappeared!

We're thinking from the south, and I'm guessing it was the pressure from those lioness as well as the fact that migrating herds had made their way up into this area of the reserve, the kind of front runners that the sausage tree pride moved all the way across to here out of their territory, and they've been hanging out there ever since.

Now we saw those little cubs somewhere around here going across this road; that was the last place we saw them—these two males in this area, that would kill those cubs. So I'm hoping that the lioness to lioness and the mother caught wind of that and have come somewhere back into the central area.

I'm guessing that they are still lioness here. That, of course, the lioness will move, and will the sausage tree pride move? But we don’t know.

Thanks, James! We don’t know exactly why or how exactly the dynamics work, but that’s kind of my theory as to why I've come into this area. It sounds like you guys have been having a wonderful supply this afternoon; everyone seems to be getting lucky, and some really fascinating interactions are pure in the Mara with old Kapali.

I must say I'm quite envious of David and Manu; what a fantastic view on those little Vienna sausages. The cubs are very precious, and they certainly are! And we kind of had a feeling; well, we’re hoping that we're gonna see some cubs because one lioness disappeared for quite some time.

We actually saw her once rejoined the pride about a month ago, so she obviously came to touch bases with them, but the cubs weren't big enough to reintroduce or introduce to that other pride members just yet. So we're not too sure how many days before we saw those first little cubs that she may have introduced them to those other two lioness.

And there's also a possibility that Kinky Tail and the fifth lioness haven't even met those cubs yet because they've been kind of doing their own thing. Interesting times; there's no two ways about that!

Possibly the first interactions between Kapali and Anna. We know lioness has been seen today; it's definitely, I think, our first interactions. So, yeah, a lot is changing and making our lives interesting, which is wonderful.

We just don't need to try and keep our finger on the pulse, which is tricky because they have got so much space to roam and relatively not too many roads for us to search. But my plan tonight is to stay out until midnight, and hopefully after dark, but maybe a bit of audio and vocalizations, we may be able to get on top of what is going down.

But anywhere here, those lions could poke their head out of the grass. I’m feeling lucky about this area. Very good! Well, speaking of David and Kapali and the big lady from there, we know pride, why don't you go and see what the latest developments are there?

Well, Scott has been following the sausage tree pride for quite some time with Brent Leo Smith. And I think this time around, it's me who is lucky to be following them, and I’ve seen some of the dramatic behavior of Kapali, the male that you see on the screen.

Then I think the two of them more than Brent and more than Scott, as I said earlier, he has been involved in two fights. My apologies, because I was hunted by gremlins earlier, and you lost me at one point. I truly apologize! It's all about technology and what's happening now. The having to rest, Kapali, with the female lioness there, and we can identify that female lion as a hundred percent.

But she belongs to the pride of my own that we call the winners—winners always five. The two youngsters—there are two young females, and this is the mother of those two young females. How lucky is Kapali to fight off two males, and now he caught the girl for himself?

Well, we might be lucky to see some action! JW, before I answer your question, let me pause for a few seconds or minutes.

[Music]

I’m breathing out! JW, I don't know whether you got an answer from that particular behavior of those lions, but while mating, JW would have noticed they don't hunt. It's a very religious—it's like a ritual for them; they strictly keep mating religiously without involving themselves in hunting.

They might stay in the spot for like five days without eating and not drinking anything. JW, will he believe that if you look carefully on the right eye of Kapali, he got a huge scar right below the right eye? This he got about an hour and a half ago; it's a very fresh wound.

And is when he was fighting the second of the male or the nomadic males that had tried to encroach his territory, and that male that has given him that huge scar was mating with his female. What I’m saying, in other words, this female has been mating with two lions in the last, I would say, five hours!

What is a strong female from the OE nose? Jenica, Kapali translates to an earring, and you have seen how people now will have earrings on their ears or on their noses. So, if you look closely at one point—see this male facing us that we call Kapali—you’ll see what I’m talking about when we look at his nose.

So, Kapali basically translates to an earring, and depending on why you put it, we think this male may lie on his earring on the nose. You can see how the wind is blowing or blowing his mane, and I think now she or they have met at least five times for the last forty minutes!

And it’s always exciting when you see some real egos! Yes, well, not that I reinfect David, but in fact what is happening at the moment is love is certainly in the air! Males mating, male and female lions mating, this Warburg eagle pair that has just turned all the way back from North Africa has come down here for the breeding season!

And there's a little bit of ello grooming going on right now. It's a female on the right and the male on the left; she’s noticeably bigger than he is. And while we've been waiting for you to come to us, he's been doing some proper head scratchers for her.

Very nice to see! He came in and landed beautifully on that perch next to her, probably not foraging, looking for some food. He didn’t bring anything back for her because they're not actually nesting yet.

Well, they've produced the nest, it seems—but I don't think there's any eggs so far, and we're hoping to maybe catch a gore mating. Wouldn't that be special? I don't think I've ever seen that before! Definitely, spring summertime is on its way, and you can see that it’s now his turn for some head scratchers, but she’s now giving him the attention!

And now she dips her head to say, “My turn now,” and he’s like, “No, it's still my turn.” Constantly happening in relationships. It’s everyone else's turn to do that—the tickling, isn’t it? Those hard-to-reach places are very important in these kind of social standings for these birds, some mammals as well, to do sort of ello grooming.

It's a sustained us between them; it bonds them together, and we're looking forward to spending the summer with these guys watching them reproduce. Hello Ted!

Well, the Warburg’s eagle, which is very interesting, they only lay one egg. Very early too, so they don’t seem to have the insurance policy that most eagles do. They do lay the one but that’s only to have quite a good success rate.

But if that doesn’t hatch, well, they might lay another one, but sometimes it’s unlikely due to the short sort of breeding season that they have down here. And I mean last year, this pair, I do believe it was this pair that didn’t successfully breed this last season.

If I’m not mistaken, there was a pair closer to two Voigt Ella watching all that that was successful; we watched that chick fledge and fly off! But this pair—who knows what happened; it’s hard to see what goes on in the nest!

It would be marvelous to set up some form of camera right up above. But anyway, we’re going to move on from my eagles and their love affair, and let’s go over to the little chief and see how's he getting on with his Impala!

Grooming is one of the very interesting activities because it does maintain very strong relationships amongst bears and other big animals! So, now I am still here with the little chief, Husana, and I'm not alone at the moment at the sighting! I do have some other vehicles also enjoying this majestic beautiful cat, and you can see now the prey that we were earlier on looking very much fresh.

Now it’s looking very much damaged; it's looking old now, so this cat, he doesn't want to rest after killing this animal. I just want to eat straight away; I'm sure he has been waiting a lot that not feeding immediately, the chances of losing the kill they are always very much high.

He is really improving every day, so we have seen it on several occasions when Kanyana is coming and taking away the food, so now it was to kill and eat immediately; he doesn’t want problems anymore. Look at that now; so he’s busy now trying to eat the thighs, he’s eating the hip bones.

Lara, that is determined by the distance between this animal and the competitors such as the hyenas. When we arrived here, we arrived both at the same time with the hyenas, but those hyenas, they seem to be now hiding somewhere around here.

If we lose this prey now, I can promise you the chances of getting it back, they are very much slim at the moment, as hyenas can be very much active to react after the dropping of the kill.

Steve with a chancy service honor to move the kill to a different tree, they are very much high! I have seen Husana moving carcasses from one tree to the next not long time ago. Husana conducted quite a lot of series of hunting activities, and he managed to catch three different carcasses in less than 24 hours!

And that day I saw him moving to the next tree with another piece of meat left from a different animal. You can see now that meat looks very fresh and moisturized. Rosalind, the tail of Husana can be very long, up to 94 to 100 centimeters; that is very much long!

So that tail is not just there for decoration— the tail is there for communication, and it is also there in order to show you the level of aggression when this animal is not happy!

So you can be able to read the internal mood of the animal just from the tail, and it also serves in order to call the little ones— the little ones see “Follow me!” sign to follow them when they are going in between the bushes and within the tall grasses.

Look at that; you can see that his claws are very much strong because he can be able to maintain the balance! Look at that positioning! That is an awkward position, but you can see, he’s surviving it. So you can see that this is quite a lovely shirt, and thank you very much, Senzo!

So this leopard is not yet a mature word; still has got to go a long way! It must be older than at least than two and a half years, but to breed, he must have to start doing the breeding activities when he’s older than four years.

So, you can see that is a male; we can see the confirmation from a distance. He cannot drop that piece there on paper; he can only just drop some of the pieces, such as bones that are very difficult to digest. Those kind of unwanted small pieces—yes, he can be able to drop them, but the rest of the meat, especially the intestine, is very interested in... If we can check there now, you can see there is a small piece that is hanging, and this son flies on!

That was part of the things that he just dropped earlier on when he was absorbing the stomach juices. So those were part of the unwanted materials because they were very close to the end. I think those were the last droppings from this animal, which was in the body, so he did not want to eat that, but it managed to absorb the stomach juices!

So now let's go back to the Masai Mara aware, as Scott has got the lovely wildebeest! My favorite animal during the migration activities!

Good idea, Husana! It sounded like you weren’t gonna be able to keep your meal where you wanted it! I’ll just stop here and amongst the herds, and I’m hoping you can hear them:

[Music]

Canoeing away! The interesting thing when you move through an area like this that’s just littered with wildebeest is that quite often the lions can be nearby.

I’m told you—sadly can’t really hear them too well—but like I was saying, the lion could be dotted somewhere in and amongst them, and it’s often quite a bizarre scene having predates so close to the canoes!

For now, we’re going to keep moving and see if we can’t check over this little rise. Yeah, we need to rush you off to Steve. Goodbye!

Hello! Look at what we found! My favorite animal in the whole world! From a distance, I thought I saw a very large monitor lizard, but it has in fact a honey badger that is digging his nose into this dead, very dead tree!

I’m gonna try; how exciting is that? So excited! I don’t quite know what to say right now! Hey guys, he’s on the floor again! There he is; and he’s moving quickly!

Honey badgers normally just don't stand still; this guy doesn't seem too bothered at all! I can’t believe it—has just made my ear scene, the wild dogs this week and now a honey badger on Sunday!

So one of my favorite weeks ever! Here we go—that’s the typical honey badger gait, always staying down again, and he’s moving through; he’s going to cross the road in front of us in a second!

He'll get a nice sort of image of him now sniffing as he goes! There he goes; that’s the honey badger movement, and I can keep that up for a very long period of time! How fantastic! He’s got a really, really good sense of smell!

Not quite sure what he’s looking for, but could be looking for insects, scorpions, snakes. He was climbing up on the tree and maybe he was looking for something that stuck as it snuck itself away into one of the cavities.

Everywhere he runs is also very excited! Like being—let's see if we can get him again!

He’s looking very relaxed, so all about the route that you choose to go. We have been have had no luck with the wild dog tracks, so we are trying to follow up on where we last saw the lion tracks.

And there goes the honey badger. There, Paula. Honey badgers are regarded as crepuscular, so active at dusk and dawn; but then none of these animals really fits into their category, if that weather is quite cool, they can really do anything they want to.

But primarily they're active when it's the coolest parts of the day, and this guy, as well, it's cooled down a bit, he’s probably quite hungry. It almost looks like his hips are sticking out; it looks like he might be extremely hungry—maybe lost a little bit of condition!

That he’s gone into a little thicket there; we have another road to our left-hand side that might work quite well! Oh, no idea! Joy, I haven’t identified the FDF; it’s a male or a female, I don’t really care to be honest; that is a honey badger, and that makes us be so excited!

But I suppose maybe I said he is just... I’m so confused or so excited that I’ve maybe mixed up a little bit of the wrong language! It is—I’m trying to get myself in a good position! I think if I just move around this little thicket here, he is playing a very nice game with us here.

I believe James Henry had the most amazing honey badger sighting for the longest period of time. There he is; there it is! I’m just marveled! Honey badgers are omnivores; they are in the order carnivora.

So they do eat meat; they're specialists at snakes, scorpions. They absolutely love bee honeycomb from beehives, insects— they are feed on small rodents as well; they dig things up—yeah, anything that might be trying to hide away, small mammals, small birds, eggs—and they can climb trees!

Nothing really can escape them, and you know they have a fetish for bee hives, hence the name honey badger! And they seem to be immune to the stings of the bees.

A very thick fur and very thick pliable skin make them very, very resilient! Even to a leopard, a lion might kill them quite easily, but a leopard—well, a leopard thinks twice about trying to tackle these individuals!

But this is what they do; they’re just ferreting around constantly, busy, constantly digging around, smelling, sniffing, searching for whatever they can go for, looking for scorpions underneath the bark, sniffing. Maybe he's got some rodent trails he’s picking up on or maybe one of the black numbers that's been moving around has left some support of sort of pheromone trail along the ground that he’s picked up on and is moving towards.

I’m over the moon! Oh yes, Kathy! Kathy from Ohio, honey badgers are regarded as being quite aggressive, and that is their form of defense, basically, because they are mustelid, so they’re able to secrete quite a smelly enzyme. And their best form of defense is just to be aggressive and to fight.

So to challenge anybody who tries to get in their way, and through that, most predators and most animals learn that the honey badger is not to be tolled with! So invariably, they leave them alone; maybe a young male or a young leopard might end up playing with the honey badger once, but then once bitten, twice shy, they'll end up leaving it be!

It's just in a little thicket here again; it's gonna come out the other side! Here we go; he’s got a snake!

Oh my word, he’s got a snake! I think it’s a puff adder! I don’t know if it was a monitor lizard. He’s got something there that moved through there! Look at the size of it! It might be a monitor lizard; he is grabbing it by the tail!

It could be a snake! I have no idea! I just saw something move very quickly, and there it goes! Let’s see if we can keep up with him!

The monitor lizard up the tree! He’s going up after it! The monitor lizard is right on top! He’s climbing it like a Pooh bear! The monitor lizard has got absolutely no chance here, folks! This is what the honey badger does best!

Oh! He jumped down! He is going to try! The monitor lizard is in a safe spot right now— I don’t think the honey badger can climb that tree!

Oh my word, this is happening directly in front of us! A lot of folks! The monitor lizard I think is having a huge sigh of relief!

He had his tail in the jaws of the honey badger and honey badger just before we came around to the spot lifted his tail like that! When his tail goes up like that, that's when he gets excited!

He must do something similar; he’s going to try again! I wonder, they are very clever; they are very good at figuring things out!

And he’s going to try to figure out how to get that monitor lizard! The monitor lizard is sitting perched very precariously on a very thin stalk of a tree, and I don’t know; he knows that he’s no match; he’s going to just try to stay there!

But I wonder if this very clever carnival is going to figure out how to get up there! Definitely, where he picked his tail up before, he must have noticed or smelt that something was here; he was up a tree earlier when we first found him!

And maybe that was the smell of the monitor lizard that he initially found or smelt, and he’s been trying to track it and follow. The monitor lizard would be moving in a very similar sort of manner to the honey badger, looking for things and crevices.

Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen! Welcome to Juma in the Sabi Sands, where we have got a very excited and very energized honey badger that has been ferreting around in the undergrowth and sniffing after something! We weren’t quite sure what it was! Then all of a sudden, he launched an attack!

Caught this individual monitor lizard by the tail, and the monitor lizard, who is very, very strong, was able to pull himself out of the grasp of the honey badger, ran up a very big log, and has now perched precariously on a very thin branch!

The honey badger is moving around in all sorts of circles! He is a very smart fella; they are able to figure things out, and he’s going to see if he can somehow displace that monitor lizard from his perch on top of the tree now he’s going up the actual tree that the monitor lizard is in!

They are very good climbers, and what's going to happen is if he does get up there, the monitor lizard is going to feel he’s being threatened. He’s probably going to jump out, and the honey badger will probably jump down and chase him!

I don’t think this is going to end well for the lizard! Please feel free to drop your questions and comments below!

Jonathan, wow! Indeed, he is! Well, honey badgers are my favorite animal in the world, and this is my first time seeing one in probably about a year and a half! First time seeing one here on Juma!

Look at how he goes— he does not care! There goes the monitor lizard! Down it goes on the floor! The chase is on, folks! The chase is on! Go honey badger!

I’m going to move up fully! Honey badger’s tail is in the air; he’s very excited! If he catches this, I don’t know what he’s going to do! Is he going to try and throttle it?

Yeah, he’s got it right over here! How’s that for the—You’ll answer—we love showing you our broadcast! Welcome from Toronto! Here we have the honey badger! He has just made the kill of what looks like a rock monitor!

It’s hard to say; I want to think! I want to try to reposition for you, Voldie; just put my nose in the bush here real quick! Holy moly, everyone, this is incredible stuff! That's about as good as we're going to do!

If just put our nose off the road here, Wingnut! Well, the honey badger preys on whatever he wants to! And martial eagle actually also very, very good predator for monitor lizards! Larger monitors are also good predators against the younger ones!

But the honey badger has dispatched him! He has probably snapped his neck when he caught him! The monitor—after that drop onto the floor, I think everything was over for him there! There’s no escape!

I’ve seen honey badgers taking Cape Cobras out of trees! I’ve seen them killing rock pythons that are six, seven times larger than them without any effort! It’s all about attitude! There we go! It’s positioned itself perfectly for us!

What a fantastic sighting! It’s quite an old— The honey badgers don’t care! We’ll leave the expletive out of it this time! You can—there’s a little bit of cracking of bone now!

For some reason, he’s enjoying eating the face! Not quite sure why! A little bit of monitor lizard tongue! Michelle, it is my favorite animal, and I'm glad that you love them too! They are fearless!

And monitor lizards to try and grab one—it’s quite a thing to do! They are very powerful, and the honey badger caught it by the tail initially and tried to pull it out of the tree or out of the bush that it was in!

It managed to wrap its tail and knock a honey badger off and then scuttled up that little bush, which the honey badger then chased it up! You saw how the honey badger figured it all out, and once the monitor was on the ground, it was all over but the eating!

Maria, that's a great question! And the honey badger will probably eat his favorite portions, and then I don't think he’ll be able to ingest the entire lizard! The lizard is probably about half of his weight; maybe a third of his weight, which is an enormous amount of meat to get in!

But I’m thinking that this individual honey badger is quite old; you can see it’s got quite a bit of sort of mange or it’s losing fur under the legs; we saw earlier it was losing a bit of fur, and its teeth aren’t really doing, I suppose, what it needs to do!

But maybe he just likes the lips of a monitor lizard! But he’s not really breaking into it. I keep saying he; I do apologize! I have no idea what sex it is at the moment!

Cristina, do you see those claws? There, the claws are for digging and for climbing, and they climb trees very, very well! I mean, he climbed the tree earlier! He looked like a black bear you might find in the northern hemisphere or in the States!

And he climbs the tree very, very well, and they connect, you go up the trees quite quickly! Nowhere near as well as leopards can do, but they’re quite strong, quite powerful!

The claws aren't necessarily very sharp, but they're able to add purchase, just like black bears do when they climb a tree! And it enables them to pull their full body weight up, but they can go up trees alright!

Diligently! And he went up that small tree and onto the end of that precarious branch without any fear! And I think I was watching him at the time and not the monitor, but I think you might have all caught him just launching himself out of the air!

Probably about two and a half, three meters in the air! He’s landed on his side on its side after the monitor lizard! Not standard! All of us would be completely winded with a fall like that!

Especially if we knew the size of an imager like this, and then there we go! Now he’s well... I think he’s enjoying his meal! Very strange to see what part he goes for first!

Maybe he’s just so angry that the monitor lizard resisted him initially that he’s just going to eat its face first! Well, ladies and gentlemen, we are still live on YouTube! Please feel free to Google us, a Safari Live, a jump on board! We still have for another hour or so!

We will be here again next week and every other day on YouTube! So thank you for joining us at this short action broadcast, and we will see you next time! Have a good evening!

Wow! I’m out of breath there, folks! I’m out of breath! Well, who needs to find lions and leopards to get action? How exciting is an individual like this? Something I’m really, really amazed at the opportunity that this guy is taking!

This individual is not really getting too much of the food in! He still hasn’t really removed much of the face at the moment! There’s a blood on the lip! If there are sensitive viewers out there, it might not be a good time to be watching now!

But this is nature, and this is what happens out! Yep, they're not them! You see the teeth are quite well worn down; can you see that? Another good indication of age! That might be another reason why he is struggling to really feed!

But they are tenacious, full of spirit, and it was so awesome to see because he was moving around with his nose on the ground; he was very deliberately trying to find something that had been around!

And he went up the first tree which is a typical sort of tree for a monitor lizard to be in! And then he just picked up the smelt, picked up the trail, found it underneath the bush, and that was the end, as it were, of a very nice example of a monitor lizard!

Well, from one carnival to the next one, kill Husana! Let’s get to Sydney and the little chief! It was really nice watching the small carnivore after the rough tires! A very aggressive animal!

Now I’ve got one of the big spotted horse! Husana is now very relaxed on the ground now! All the way from the acacia tree! Now you can see he came down all the way from the tree to the termite mound! He’s very relaxed now, so he's gonna gain quite a lot of strength and again go up to the tree and carry on feeding!

So, I don’t know! Oh! Now he's moving! Oh, he’s just changing the spots! You can hear his coughing; I’m sure he may be here by the throat! They’re still quite a little fast from the fresh kill!

Earlier this week, we saw a very lovely sighting of Tijana. We found Tijana late one afternoon staring into the distance! There were rumors that he had been with a female leopard who was quite shy and not fond of the vehicles!

Tijana made an interesting contact call before resting up in the long grass! I wasn’t long before the young leopards came slinking out from behind a bush and presented herself to Tijana!

We were so lucky to witness the cats mate on two different occasions! However, the young female is not familiar with vehicles and suspects she may have come from the north near Buffalo!

It was interesting thinking on introducing his new girlfriend here in Juma, and it’s an unknown girlfriend! I’m sure Tijana was looking for his son and Tiny to show them he’s got a new girlfriend!

And he decided to just mate in front of us to make sure that they're domestic! That’s not just friends; it's about mating activities! It's definitely a new wife!

So you can see, oh, now they’re very nice and relaxed! Let’s see, maybe he's gonna go back up to the kill and carry on feeding! So the competition is very much low at the moment as the hyenas are not here at the moment!

Sons from Israel, the kill is right up earning by the tree! I can see it from here! He managed to find a very nice spot in order to hang the carcass! But where it is, I can promise you it’s well protected because it's not just by a simple tree; this is an acacia tree, a chili tree!

The tree has got quite a lot of spikes on them, is inaccessible at the moment! Only he can access that carcass, but the other cats, such as Tandy Antigone, if they come here, obviously they will be able to get hold of these carcass at home!

When the unknown female caught some cubs, she must have made sure that the cubs are well hiding away from the other females as the mortalities can be very much high! So the females don't tolerate the other females; just like the males as well don't tolerate other males!

Only the opposite sex can be tolerated! So that cat that we saw, Tijana mating with the unknown cat—we’re not too sure where she’s coming from; maybe she’s just here in this territory for mating purposes, and after that, we'll go back, give birth, and raise young!

But I'm sure Tijana knows where exactly that female is from! It was very nice seeing Tijana introducing that female to us! So now let's go back to the Masai Mara, where David has got the lovely wildebeest!

My favorite animal during the migration activities! Good idea, Husana! It sounded like you weren’t gonna be able to keep your meal where you wanted it!

I’ll just stop here in and amongst the herds, and I’m hoping you can hear them:

[Music]

Canoeing away! The interesting thing when you move through an area like this that’s just littered with wildebeest is that quite often the lions can be nearby.
