The Biggest Lion Pride in the Kruger National Park
This massive Lion Pride at full strength consists of around 30 lions known as the Transport dam Mega pride.
The Transport dam mega pride is currently one of the biggest lion prides in the Kruger National park South Africa. Controlled by their 2 pride males, with one of the Transport dam males being easy to recognise with a big cut in his nose. When both pride males are present the pride there has been reports of over 30 lions at sightings. At this sighting we counted around 20 lions as they crossed infront of our vehicle with the youngest members and 2 pride males not present. The pride covers a big territory with lots of mouths to feed. We saw them on the H1-1 on this occasion north east of Transport dam. They are frequently seen between the H1-1, S65 and H3 and enjoy spending time at Transport dam on the H1-1 and Kwaggaspan on the H3.
The two pride males are spending less time with the mega pride and are more frequently seen with 3 lionesses from the renosterkoppies pride.

Thats a lot of hungry lions..🦁
It's rare to see this mega pride in wildlife. You can imagine how wild beasts thrived in ancient times without human interference.
Yeah, elephants traveled 200 plus a hundred years ago. Good observation.
To think that as late as the 1970s there were 250K lions still living in the wild; numbers that would make any wildlife biologist/lover of nature howl with joy today!!! Current lion population estimates range from 30 000 to as few as 16,000 lions living freely. Horrible 😢
Si il n'y avait pas autant d'être humains ils auraient pas diminuer si vite
Yeah wild dog packs used to be 100 strong
Wow lot of awesome Queens, probably 2 to 3 males
How awesome…!!! Everyone looks so healthy and strong….!! Lots of mouths to feed but lots of supreme lionesses…!! I’m sure their hunts go well..!!HOPE THEY ALL STAY TOGETHER AND RULE THE LANDS…!!!🐾🦁🦁🦁🦁🐾 🐾😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻🐾
Amen!!!
wrong the male rules the pride...
@@bobperrone2105 Yeah….!! You tell your wife that….!! You’ll be sleeping in the dog house..!!
tell her what@@michaeldamico9592
Wow...totally stunning!!! That's an army!!!
She is beautiful to see the Transport Dam pride💞and to know that they are not all there is incredible...it must be something to see them all together. The sub adults are handsome💞it seems to be a pride close to each other, I hope the rest of the pride is well as well as the Transport Dam males💞(which I would have liked to see) and I also hope that they continue to visit this pride from time to time… Thank you for the video🙂
Such a majestic and beautiful sight to witness. Truly one of the largest prides of African Lions on the Savanah. Incredibly healthy and they must control a decent amount of territory. 💪🏻🙏🏻✨
All I can say is wow wow wow what a beautiful family of Lions they're so beautiful
Beautiful pride of lions!🥰❤❤❤
Just look at all of this lions is this a beautiful sight to see
Wow there’s TONS of them!! And even tho that’s a lot of mouths to feed they still all look very healthy & well fed! The Mayanbula’s almost have 30 strong, they have about 17 cubs, 6 lionesses & 3 males (I might be off but it’s something like that lol) I would love to see more of this pride. They are absolutely breathtaking. Gorgeous!!!! I love them all!!! ❤❤❤❤
Beautiful but need some cubs I saw one similar to this, but they had cubs and 30 all together however great family
@@falanajerido875yes it looks like there’s only sub adults & no cubs. The 2 pride males don’t spend much time with this pride, they’ve been busy with some females in the Renosterkoppies pride. So maybe that’s why there’s no cubs.
@@falanajerido875I wonder why they all ran away at the end? Something definitely disturbed them.
@@Tara_P_Rose Now i want you to look at his other video. 2 males lions, and 10 cubs, and lionesses you will love that one
@@Tara_P_Rose i agree maybe the guy who show this video can explain
That's more like a herd of lions instead of a pride. I counted around 35 lions and that means there must be 40 plus. Never knew lion prides could outnumbered herds of elephants, cape buffalo, zebras, antelope, dogs and hyenas. Hope they keep an eye on this pride so we can see more of this majestic pride.
What a wonderful sight ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁 Thank you for sharing Yvonne Mullion Cornwall England 🏴
What a great pride..😍🦁
Wow, a pride of sub-adults and teenagers 😀❤️❤️😍😍❤️😀
That really is the largest pride I’ve ever Sean. 😊😊their numbers make them strong. They must control a huge amount of territory.
WOW WHAT A BIG PRIDE NOTHNG BUT POWER AWESOME!!!!!!
The lioness dont get alot of credit feeding and protecting all them off springs wow.
For having to feed so many mouths, it seems that the lioness mothers do it very well. It helps a lot to that pride that there is no lion cub since everyone after the lionesses are already young lions about to enter adulthood.
Thanks for sharing
What a coalition force too
Do you know why did the lions running and hiding behind the bushes at the end of the video?
Most likely the truck is making them scared. I’ve seen this several times and I’m figuring poachers
Maybe the King is approaching and he's pissed of no one has made a kill.
@@funguykel no they’d greet him . Listen you can hear a vehicle
I thought maybe an elephant herd? Was coming their way.
I don't think they would have a problem with feeding...👍
Never heard of this pride before!
Transport dam Mega pride
@sanjeev99523 who the king?
@@eleanorferguson9857 don't u know it's me🤣
@@sanjeev99523 I guess I don't
100 years ago most lion prides used to look like this .
thanks for the update. 👍
WOW!! Stunning video of a powerhouse pride of such so magnificent creatures!!! Bless you all!!! Amazing Lions!!!
Beautiful video lions and park 💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
Thanks for posting!! This is a once in a lifetime to see this incredible sighting!!!
There must be a great source of food in the area. Otherwise, they would probably split into separate prides.
So beautiful and majestic. Such a pity their home has been reduced to Piccadilly Circus in order for them to survive.
Fantastic pride. Great seeing the Transport Dam pride. What two males control this pride?? They are stunning males. Does anyone know?? 💜💜🥰🥰
What a beautiful pride sub adult males are gorgeous mayanbula pride is just as big
Wow!! That must be a sight @ feeding time.
Beautiful sight thankyou
it is a wonderful sight. a spectacle worth appreciating. It's a pretty big pride. although I see something strange: no cubs! 🤔
Absolutely awesome 👌. ❤
Absolutely stunning. I tried to count them but couldn't do it . Does anyone know how many there was !!?
Great family
Incredible
THANK YOU FOR THIS SUPERB VIDEO!👑 They all look in great health and this siting is most beautiful! WHAT SCARED THEM OFF? I was just enjoying the large count😊 Thank you!🦁
How can they survive when the dry season is long? If they can communicate in a language that both of them can understand, I would suggest that they join in migrating following mammals, including zebras, forest buffalo/bulls, etc.
Wow! That's a lot of lions. Weren't you afraid with all of them coming at you? "Yikes let's get out of here".
They never miss a meal
Guau 😮 que belleza 🥰
biggest one we've seen was 23 near Malelane some 20 years ago
L'aria è mossa....le nubi forse annunciano un temporale vicino.. Facciamo un un'adunata...e il Punto della Situazione....e se comincia a Piovere...cerchiamo un posto utile Per ripararsi🦁💪
The most beautiful felines in the whole world ♥️🙏🏻💚👏
I'm surprised not to see any small cubs in such a big pride.
What is the reason they fled,am i hearing roars in the background? Please share if you know.Amazing queens and beautiful subadolts sharing love and bonding,tnx for this 🦁🤟.
Such a brave camera man
Because, 4x4 is coming to check them out... I mean humans... Who love to see.. Those super crazy cool lions... 😎😜💚💙🍀🌳🌱🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🍀🌳
They're beautiful need a king we need some cubs you know they're great hunters
I counted 13 lionesses
ما شاءالله ما اجملهم
❤❤❤
There is normally too many lionesses born to each mother, I think natural selection make it possible for a lioness to also survive those first few months.
There must be a lot of fighting at meal time.
Especially if they kill a gazelle.
Beautiful super pride
Figataaaaaa assolutaaaa.
Other pride or nomad male lions would definitely keep away from this pride.💪👏
Hyenas will never push these numerous ladies off a kill.
Dejadlos en paz por favor. Dejadlos en paz!!!
MAJESTIC MAJESTIC ANIMALS 🐈🐈🐈!!!!! littles peoples!!!!!!
Wonder what scared them to start running?
Family.
What are the names of the 2 pride males ? I knew before a few years that there's a coalition of 3 males colled the transport dam , are they the same males ?
What pride is this?
I like how the mother and her older son were licking each other so beautiful to see..
Wow! Fabulous! Who are they running from? Where are the males? Is it a breakaway from a pride?💥 soooo lovely! These only need careful Buffalo 🐃 hunts😛 impala, topi all deer 🦌 species would be insufficient for those massive numbers. 🦁🦁🦁💥pls keep us updated, thanks 👍🏾
IT IS VERY SHAMEFULL ;; THAT KRUGER NATIONAL PARK ;; DOES NOT APPOINT ANY VETERINARY DOCTORS FOR ;; GOOD HEALTH OF ;; ANIMALS .
I think there were countless mega prides in ancient time.
I counted up to 13?? That many cats and something spooked them and they took off running away??
I'm guessing the two who were not spooked to run away were the matriarchs
👌👌👌👌👌
the apu must be coming for them too run like that
1800- 1 mil lions 1900 - 500k lions 1970 - 250k 2020- 20k Lions!!! 😢😢😢 Horrible
Humans….mainly the powers that shouldn't be, are evil.
Ud thing initially they'd be eating on demand but looking at them it's more a case of more means more mouths to feed. I don't think they take down more than an one at Time and then it's game on for one morsel
Its like watching a parade of Elephants only Lions
Is there a male lion in this pride?
Where are tiger boyz? this shows that Lions are more intelligent than tigers
Haven’t seen the male yet
I saw a lot of males both young and old. If they stick together I see the potential of possibly the biggest Male Coalition in the making here.
I lost count at 8 not willing to rewind
nice but put a windshield on your mic!sounds terrible..
Swani Pride???
man a pride like that can wipe out an entire species
Where are the babies?
I'd like to know how many lionesses are in the pride, that's the long-term measure of pride size as cubs are born, die or grow up. I saw at least half a dozen, though adolescent females may not be easily distinguished from the adults while the scruffy teenage boys can.
Every Male take 4 female 😅
@@nor-62 maschaAllah
Там много подростков
Too many.
Who the king
I can imagine the fight for food whn thyve made a kill
Mostly mothers and daughters, with adolescent males soon to be booted out I'd say
Hyenas left the chat
Where were these lions when I was on a 5 day safari in Kruger! I didn’t see a single lion! Tbh my guide was 💩
Poor gazelle if they are coming this way
Do this pride master the art of bringing down sub adult eles being so numerous a la some prides in Botswana
I can only imagine the terror they must bring to their prey when attacking them
They look like they are running from something.
They look on edge..
