RE: Matimba Sons - Potato - 02-10-2022
I imagine that saying that Mbiri male was in fight is just reference to his chin which from some angle may look like it is broken. There are no any fighting wounds vissible on the photo so personally I do not take that update serious.

We will need better photos of ZigZag to see what condition he truly is in.

Last week or so, on Kruger Sightings where ZigZag was seen, was also mentioned he was in bad condition/injured.

U mean old skybed Or otheir sons " Skybed".
As far as I know, half of the skybed males were killed by matimbas in 2010 and most of the remaining by old avocas/ giraffe males ( brutus and brothers) in 2018 around.
Never heard about skybed sons.
Visit "Skybed coalition" thread on recent pages.

Idk, but 6-7mayambulas, 3-4 nsemanis Or 4 moawana nomads could be behind this
Mandevu and Nchile are 100% healthy and beasts. Lambile is a bit skinnier and can limp occasionaly, but nothing too serious.
Myambulas are too young for this, and Nsemanis or Monwanas are not even close to them.

Perhaps it is, perhaps that is just unfortunate angle of the photo. Anyway even if he indeed has some sort of injury to his chin, it sounds incredibly unlikely for it to happen in a fight with another lion, but rather from unfortunate hunt on zebra or giraffe.

Yea, on this image looks like might be similar situation like with Styx male, which is definitely not from a fight, yet from kick.

The smaller-maned Mbiri male is looking in such amazing condition, even his mane looks much better now
Same with S. Avocas

That's definitely a possibility. However, he's had that hanging jaw for a hot minute now and if it had an effect on his ability to eat, surely it would have showed by now. We'll just have to wait for further updates to be sure if something's up or not.

This is not true about Ncila or Mandevu. They’both look plenty well. Lambile is of course always been thinner. He has a bit of atrophy in his hip so he’s never in the best condition but well enough. I hardly would say unfit.
