Battle Scarred. Male lions will often engage in a ferocious fights with other males either to defend or takeover a pride, to determine who is the more dominant and as such has mating rights or even just over the best part of the kill. Interestingly, of the big cats it is only lions who are very vocal eaters, leopards and cheetah prefer to eat as quietly as possible without squabbling, to try and avoid raising too much attention from would be scavengers.

Birmingham boys in sabi sabi private game reserve
After announcing their presence to the world with the most impressive roaring display we have witnessed for a while, these two male lions sought out the shade to rest after having travelled what seems like a great distance to be at Sabi Sabi.  Along the way, both lion and tracker Lazarus seemed absolutely focused!

The Ntsevu pride were found on the airstrip a couple of times this week, usually with the Birmingham males in tow. These males are starting to show signs of age, in particular this individual known as Tinyo who is sporting a pronounced limp. How long will they be in charge for…? - Londolozi Game Reserve - Posted:- 27 Mar 2020

I'm not counting my 2 dudes Nhena and Tinyo out just yet. I think they have a few more years left in them to be on top. Time will tell!

The good thing is that the loss of two members hasn't cost them anything yet. They have successfully raised cubs to adulthood with the nkuhumas, torchwood, styx, and soon kambulas and the tsalala female's cub. Its good that the selaties story didn't happen to the birminghams.


RE: The Birmingham Males - sundarbans - 03-31-2020

How many cubs have the Birminghams had with the Kambulas and how old are they?
