TSAVO'S NEWEST ROYAL FAMILY


Wild Kenya Safaris was proud to have been received by the newest royal family on our recent Tsavo East Safari.

Mrembo and her three little cubs



We have been privileged to have spent a considerable amount of time with Tsavo lions, enough so, that over the last six years we've managed to study and document the lives of particular individuals and lion prides. One of these is a lioness called “Mrembo”.

We have been following the life of “Mrembo” for the last two and a half years, she was a solitary lioness and quite successful at her solo survival skills up until eight months ago when she teamed up with another solitary female called “Mjuvi”.

“Mrembo” is a proud new mother of three. The birth of these cubs is an exciting occasion for Tsavo lions and at just over three weeks old where they begin to walk adventurously, we and our guests were very privileged to have seen and photographed these adorable little cubs for the very first time.

The Unique Looking Guitar Fish

Guitar Fish resting on the sea bed One of the most interesting characteristics about the guitar fish is its unique body shape. It seemingly looks like a cross between a shark and a ray - with its flattened ray like head yet it has a long shark like body with dorsal fins - but this fish is actually a classification of its own and has about 50 subspecies.  The guitar fish prefers to remain tranquil on the sea bed, partly covering itself with sand to camouflage itself for any unsuspecting prey such as crabs or small fish that may come past it. Reaching sizes of approximately two meters in length, they are quite docile so can easily be approached by underwater photographers.
