Pride Rules

As the dry season takes hold of their territory, the pride capitalizes on weakened elephants, fights off rival lions and sees new cubs into the fold, sparking Einstein's inevitable eviction.

Get to know the Waterfront Pride: Males Tom Tom and Caller, eight lionesses, 10 youths and Einstein, the grown cub who never left home. Watch Einstein's defiance catch up with him when rivals from the Outsiders Pride make a play that seals his fate.

Feel the heat when the pride tries to hunt down adequate food as drought conditions push them (and their prey) dangerously close to death. Watch Einstein adapt to solo life, then assess the damage after new mom Kalwezi fights for her cubs' lives.

Contend with the challenges of the rainy season, which turns everything green and spoils the lions' camouflage. Watch Einstein fail to make new connections and weigh the pros and cons when Keeza and her cub are kidnapped by rival male Mad-Eye Moody.

Say hello to a season of plenty as flood waters recede and vast herds of prey return to the Chobe's banks. Watch Keeza and her cub make a break for it while Caller and Tom Tom brawl with their enemies, then cheer when Einstein finally finds a mate.
