There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

The Birmingham Males

Both pictures by Liam Rainier from Simbambili. Mfumo is the Birmingham in the top photo and two of the Birmingham Boys in the bottom photo. The one on the right is definitely Nhenha (has a V nick in his left ear). Want to say the other one is Nsuku, but I'm not sure.

Male #1's mane is always perfect, as if he just stepped out of the barbery.

The two birmingham males were still resting up in the north when we went back to relocate them in the afternoon safari a few days ago. They eventually got active and went for a drink at a nearby dam. Images by Andrew Khosa

3 Birmingham Males were seen at Arathusa today. This is the first time in a while that more than 2 have been seen together. Nhena on the left, Mufumo on the right and Tinyo with his back to the camera.

odd that they're next to elephant plains, given their "fear" of the majingilanes.

BBoys have enough territory and small cubs to be raised.
I think they will encounter any dominant males only if the current cubs are grown up a little bit...
By that time Majis may be too old..!  who knows.. they may be still strong for a fight..!!

All four of the Birmingham Male lion coalition were located resting up near a dam in the north. It is not often that these males come together since they are normally split up doing patrols or with the different prides. Images by Andrew Khosa
