This is the area where the largest Pride in Kruger lives the Boyela Pride ..over 30 individuals ..This is where the Mega Prides are ( Boyela , Grootvlei Dam Pride etc)
Boyela Pride.jpg
.Just hard to find ...They follow the huge Buffalo herds found in the North..Here is a Pic of 29 members of the Boyela Pride (Most out of thre pic to the right but because of the light on the left at that moment I swung luft on the bean Bag and cut out most of the lion. S56 1.5 Kms north of Sirheni turn off and S57 (Click really helps in this early dappled light )
