How many lions??
« on: October 02, 2013, 07:24:12 PM »
I'm wondering how many different lions I have on camera. Reallistically I probably won't be able to tell....just figured I'd throw it out there.
Any thoughts?
Really, I think the color/daytime pics might be 3 different ones. There's 2 obviously....an adult and a juvenile. Trying to decide if the 4th pic is another or one of the same....they're about an hour or so apart.

Scott-
Do you think the 4th pic is a different lion than the top 2?

If Kitten is around. Mother wouldn't move far so she stay around with in 5 miles radius to teach kittens to hunt.  So on last pic I believe it's same as first.  I may be wrong.

 :bfg:  save Bulls!  Friend told me thur Bio who study collared cougar with WSU students who spend whole winter 2007 down there and they tracked GPS and found 6 Bulls 5x5 or bigger and few another's killed by one collared mother cat and feed to two kittens with in 4 months.    :'(

In the second pic the cat looks like it is spraying. maybe that's why there is so many pics other cats are checking out the maker.

That's the youngster. Not sure how old. Maybe a yearling? Seems big to be this years young.

Not sure how many lions, but if you look at the ridge in the background, there is some sort of herd of animals. Cattle maybe? If you compare the daytime shots, the spots on the ridge beyond change.

I'm pretty positive they're cattle.

I would have guessed 3 total but that is obviously just a guess, and what I would normally see.  There is always variety to norm though.
