Thank you for that! These have been two great kings, who have been very successful so far. I believe one of their biggest strengths is they do not have wandering eyes, what with such a big pride to oversee they have their hands full already, without feeling the need to expand.

I thought she was seen improving after a sighting around Christmas?


RE: Birmingham Pride of lions - Tonpa - 01-03-2022

Hmmm maybe @"Timbavati" has more information

My thoughts exactly. I saw a photo of her, photo taken on 27th Dec. Although she looked quite thin, she was walking fine after her incident with the buffalo.

RE: Birmingham Pride of lions - DARK MANE - 01-05-2022

A quick doubt 
Who were the fatfathers of xikukutsu males? ??? 
The old avocas/ giraffe males leave the avocas pride in 2015/16 agafter skirmishes with N. Matimbaa. 
And Ross males also acquired Birmingham pride at the same time only. 
Xikukutsu males were also born in 2015/16.
So i am a bit confconfuse???? 
Also apart in Birmingham pride from BYM and BYF, the eldest member of of MAGNIFICENT SEVEN, who is aa couple of months shy to 5 , is also son of old avocas/ giraffe males. 
And Ross males are father of youngest 3.
But who is the father of middle 3 males????

Hi DARK MANE. Welcome to WildFact.
The Xikukutsu males are believed to be sons of the Ross males. However, the old Avoca/Giraffe males were seen mating in September with the Xikukutsu mother. Which means, they could be son of them as well. Unfortunately, only a DNA could confirm it at the 100%  The Xikukutsu males were born in December 2015 into a litter of 3 cubs. 2 males and 1 female. 
The old Avoca/Giraffe males fathered to the oldest Birmingham young males, the youngest sub-adults are believed to be sons of the Ross males.
