, NgoroNgoro, Tanzania.

L'ultimo giorno nel Ngorongoro, dopo aver visto un branco di leoni in grande forma con le pance piane, abbiamo trovato una coppia che mostrava grandissimi segnidi sofferenza.. NOn erano vecchissimi ma dovevano avere contratto una grave malattia che li aveva debilitati a tal punto che il maschio, nonostante la giovane età era magrissimo e faticava a tenersi in piedi ! Ngorongoro Crater Marzo 2013

Honestly, there are several theories about why you may prepend for one or for the 'other, but it is obvious that the laboratory analyzes give unequivocal data which, however, should be evaluated and interpreted.
But just look at the nature of the edges of the crater to see how easy it is to enter and exit (for example, the side from which descends the Munge river is very sweet), so that not only the cats but they do much more heavily herbivores such as zebra and wildebeest on several occasions during the 'year.
In this regard, of course, is not a scientific evidence but I've also personally to see more than once, early in the morning or in the evening lions scollinavano entering or exiting from the crater. One morning soon as one of the most beautiful scenes I've ever seen was a bunch of 11 in Indian lions entering the crater going up from the valley where there are several Masai villages ... to understand, a few hundred meters before the road down into the crater.
Among the 'other circodato from the Ngorongoro Ngorongoro Conservation Area which borders the Serengeti which in turn borders the Masai Mara and, on this territory (where no one denies problems including poaching) can be estimated on the 3000 lions rappressentano larger and more diverse population of genetically lions of 'entire continent. with this I am not sure what the problems denies and says that we should not do more (in fact) but it is just to say that, if it goes wrong here, much more ....

L 'trend of population of lions all' inside of the crater has been studied for decades and is an alternatersi cyclical peaks and falls to which up to now has always followed the recovery.
That the replacement is not just a theory I have proven time and again the story of the crater and you can also bring a recent example of which I was witness in 1999 (from memory and I would not confuse the 'year but these are the facts. .) there has been a particular climatic conditions that led to the proliferation of a fly that sent a lung disease (it seems to me a kind of tuberculosis) which has suddenly halved the population of lions that it was feared she would recover in a very long time ... Instead, thanks to the 'entry of new individuals who went to occupy the space vacated by the deceased specimens, in less than a couple of years' the situation is back to being that previous to that of' epidemic.
Among the 'other is a coson which a long time ago because I was pretty informed contribuivo to raise funds for a non-profit organization that had a research project specifically on Tarangire lions among which recorded a preoccuppante genetic degradation so that the males had manes Extremely reduced ... The crinirera is usually considered one of the first indices to measure the goodness of visibly pratrimonio genetic and from this point of view the manes of male lions of the Ngorongoro are a guarantee! In reality also come into play other factors such as the correlation temperature and growth of the hair .... E 'was also shown that the same female lion choose the male according to the mane just because index of genetic stronger. E 'was made a try if you want but interesting empirical and trusted with the life-size reproductions of lions that had been paired with a ruggito and then put to 'internal terittori of several females: The Lions played were of 3 types: one with no mane, one with blonde mane and one with the dark mane.
In the case in which there were the lion blond mane and one without the 100% of the females ranged from first in case between the two options was the one with the dark mane, 100% ranged from latter '..

In Tarangire for example, the 'genetic impoverishment is due to the big game trophies that look more beautiful, and because the ì park surrounded, I seem to remember, from 7 game reserves, just a handsome male stuck his nose out of the park was killed iun doing so that eventually only survived the lions ugliest ...

Returning to the Ngorongoro also in March, besides these two unlucky, we have seen males bellissimi that suggested strongly in all 'nothing, if I'm honest the number of lions seen was higher than many other years with the pack of Munge river in excellent condition, Ngoitokitok between the herd and the forest with two beautiful boys and several scattered specimens ..

Obviously it is not from a photo that you can know the causes of a disease or talk about genetic impoverishment, however, that unfortunately it can be considered a common denominator for all the lions of Africa 's that they can no longer move freely and remain isolated from each them, which is an even more serious problem for gorillas, rhinos, cheetahs, Simien wolf etc .... Indeed, if we want the lion has less difficulty than others and occasionally it is also found outside of the parks which does not happen to other animals ...


The Ngorongoro Conservation Area is a model that has always worked until at least 2/3 years ago when he began an exponential increase of the villages that I fear will lead to inevitable problems though, at least for now, as far as I know, there have been no direct killings and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area is undoubtedly still the best place to do the photo safari ...
This is crucial not to lose concentration iun no case more so in a country where they want to build a highway that would cut in two the Serengeti! Wow!
