It appears the Othawa boy is back with his pride and his fathers. He should join his fathers to prolong their lives and him to have a better chance of survival.

Yup, I wish he joins Mhangeni sub-adults too. It will be win-win situation for both.
Looks like females abandoned Mhangeni sub-adults to fend themselves.

The lads have been unlucky in their hunting attemps of late, along with the Othawa pride, and it shows.
But keep in mind this happens to everyone from time to time.
Yes, at their age it takes a bigger toll than it would to younger males, but a good, big meal will most likely have them in good condition again.

This post is a little late, but whenever I head back home to Africa, I feel it only fitting to post an image of Mama Africa’s greatest son... Panthera Leo. To me, the lion embodies everything it means to be an African. Although we may be divided by lines on a map, we are all Africans, we are a glorious people united by ubuntu the spirit of togetherness, and even though our home may seem shrouded in turmoil at times, we always rise and defy all odds. Just like this incredible creature, that has become our defining symbol, our representation to rest of the world. Here’s to Africa’s most famous son.

Their condition gets worse very quick. I think this is because they're losing the nurturing environment of a pride. Is there any pride left that the Majingis are controlling? Mhangenis are mating with the Birminghams. Maybe the Ottawa Pride..The condition of the Matimba Males had also gotten worse very quick after being nomadic males. I don't think the Majingilane Males will survive this year.

Lionpower the majingilanes and matimbas are really old lions. So is natural that get weak and weak. But majingilanes are smart. They are united and together to increase their chances of survival. Nobody know if bboys conquered the mhangenis. Could be only fake estrus. Mfumo and another bboy are in mala mala right now but not with mhangenis

An interesting dinner party.
On safari, it is incredible how quickly things can change! A simple gust of wind started a chain reaction, which no one could have predicted. I had found a pride of lions, doing what lions do best – sleeping hard! Not much was happening, and given the overcast conditions, it didn’t look like much was going to happen. That all changed when the wind suddenly picked up, and brought with it some juicy information.
Immediately, all four lionesses got up and changed gear to a brisk walk. At the same time, I got a call about a young male lion on a buffalo kill, in the direction the lionesses were heading. Putting two and two together, I left the ladies and made my way ahead to the newly discovered buffalo kill. There was another great surprise in store for me as I arrived though…
Two male lions were in the process of teaching a young male lion (the original owner of the kill) what life’s all about! They never managed to get a hold of him, luckily for the young gun, but when they returned to the kill site, they were frothing at the mouth in a rage that would have impressed Mike Tyson on fight night!
The four female lions had made their way to the buffalo, and one of the ladies lead the way into the ring. She approached slowly, nervous of the much larger male guarding the kill, but still showing great interest in the rather smelly buffalo. When she was well and truly committed the male came over to deliver some alpha male, but instead got sidelined with a quick battery of claws and hatred. She had two separate goes at him, making contact on both occasions, which was enough to send him scent marking a nearby bush.
Luckily for me, the kill site was relatively open, which gave me the chance to snap some images of all the madness!
