History's most brutal killers, the Majingilane Male Lions

[LionKiss]

Everybody makes assumptions even the Rangers have no tangible proof of what actually happened,

more less I make the same assumptions as them,
and the Londolozi reports has some contradictions
they say for HB: (he was moving easily by this point and it seemed that if there were any injuries, they weren’t severe at all).
then they say: we are sure that they are both hiding out in the south, attempting to find each other, licking their wounds

so we can be quite sure that HB was very echausted from the fight, something the rangers have also mentioned as the cause that HB could not stand easily before the two Majings chased him south.


This is what they say about Ginger:
The blonder-maned Matimba male was eventually found in the south east of Londolozi, right on our eastern boundary and certainly not within their established territory. Although he is still carrying the scars of his last fight, it seems he has no new injuries and because he has been able to move that far, it seems his mobility is decent. The wound on his back is leaking quite profusely but these animals are incredibly tough and the fact that he is covering such large distances really is good news for the Matimbas. His current position, knowingly or unknowingly, is relatively close to where the Matshipiri males have been spending a majority of their time and this male would be wise to avoid calling or scent marking in this area.

So Ginger has no new injuries, HB has no injuries at all, Majingilane are in superb condition, so what kind of fight was it then?
Personally I still believe Ginger didn't get involve in the fight at all.

Still the rangers don't know if the fight was 2 vs 1 or 2 vs 2, they make assumptions and I am little surpised that htey didn't rushed to the point of the fight since it is only across the river of their base, for sure they could hear the roaring.
 

Read also the first paragraph carefully:

On the evening of the 22nd February, the Matimba males were seen quite far west of their territory and roaring with a Mhangeni lioness, in Majingilane territory. This was an incredibly brave (or foolhardy) move, given the fact that one of the males was already injured and had just come out of a fight. The males roared while moving eastwards throughout the evening, and by about 10pm, the Matimba males were calling around the Londolozi camps, in the core of their territory once more. Although the Majingilane give us the impression that they have been prepared to cede their previously held territory around the Londolozi camps, its seems [b]the calls of the Matimba’s in their territory earlier in the evening was just too much to bare. The result: two of the Majingilane coalition came east to seek the newer males out.[/b]


I am sure this is the first time Majigilane face such a big provocation and the first time they didn't manage not even to wound even slightly the new comers. Even when the other two came for help in their traditional 4 vs 1 formation the failed to trace him, instead HB fool them around all the time, exhausted them with his continuously changing routes and eventually they gave up.

from the ethical point of view it is a defeat (ethical defeat) for the Majins, since they committed too much just to send them away instead of killing them both. We are talikng about the Majingilane, right? It is like the No1 football team in the world play a game against a new unknown team and win by 1-0. It is bitter victory all they managed is to send them away, if you take a theoretical approach the danger is still out there, it has not been eliminated.


In the Lion warfare if you don't kill your opponent you can't call it a victory because sooner or later he will be back, that's what is happening all the time for centuries.

I still worry about the beautiful cubs. Reply
