Lions Of The Community

For more than a decade, we have been monitoring the lions living on community lands.

Over the years of monitoring, what we have observed is truly exciting: a growing population, interesting adaptations to living with people, and dispersers that travel to distant protected areas and other lion populations.

The below timeline of events showcases the detailed information we have on one of our most loved lions – Selenkay! Scroll over the hexagons for more information and click the arrow key to follow all our observations.
