Shame, but thats the way the nature works, even us humans are killing ourselves over territory for thousands of years..
Props for his brother for trying to save him, but he is nowhere near the size to match those males..
Does anyone has photos of those 2 Addo boys? I cant find any..
@ Tr1x24 the two Addo boys, now only one since one of them died in their confrontation against the old veterans Kwandwe and Monomoholo!

Nature is brutal for sure! Those older males are beasts!
RE: Lion pictures and videos - titose - 03-22-2021
"It is a picture of horror that was presented yesterday not so far away from Rhulani Safari Lodge. The four most powerful lions in our region crashed into each other: the two buddies Kwandwe and Monomogolo on the one hand, the two brothers known as "Addo Boys" on the other. One of them was killed in a heroic battle.
"We were in a different part of the Madikwe reserve and were looking for the cheetahs when the radio started to get crazy," says Alasdair.
Rhulani's experienced ranger was not disappointed that he and his guests missed the epic fight of the lions. Alasdair says: "We know the dominant lions very well, we see them almost every day, and so the rangers have grown fond of these animals over time. We love them!"
For the same reason, Alasdair does not want to visit the site of the battle, where the dead body of the imposing lion lies torn in two in the savannah. "It's just too sad," he says. Alasdair was also barely able to watch the video recordings that are now circulating on social media.
The two "Addo boys" came to Madikwe a bit more than two years ago. They settled in the north of the reserve. But they began to gradually enlarge their territory, towards the northwest.
About eight months ago they collided with the lion which is best known to Rhulani: Kwandwe. He was powerless on his own and fled to the southwest, where he teamed up with his buddy Monomogolo.
We knew the story didn’t end here. The Addo boys were still on their mission to keep expanding the territory. A crash between the four lions was inevitable.
Alasdair is convinced: "What happened now was an act of revenge. Kwandwe and Monomogolo regained control, and the injured surviving Addo Boy had to flee.
Once again we are reminded: Nature is brutal. And the story will go on and on."
Once again we are reminded: Nature is brutal. And the story will go on and on."Once again we are reminded: Nature is brutal. And the story will go on and on."

⚔️REVENGE FROM KWANDWE ⚔️
With shock & sadness we have to mention the loss of 1/2 Addo young males yesterday, from Madikwe Game Reserve. He was killed by the two long-term dominant pair Monomoholu and Kwandwe in a clash. Back to September last year the two young males pushed Kwandwe out of the NW sector, taking over Tshaba pride. Since then Kwande rejoined his partner in the South, these two badass fighters finally found the opportunity to take revenge. Being overconfident yet unexperienced the two youngsters wandered into a deadly trap, their rivals’ land…One of them would never have a chance to return and meet his brother. The fight was dominated with sheer size and brutal fighting skills by the elder males.
Here revisit a brilliant photo for the two magnificent Kings of Madikwe, with Kwandwe patrolling in front while his unrelated, yet inseparable parter Monomoholu covering his back. Monomoholu boasts the most piercing eyes and extremely dark mane. In contrast, Kwandwe is well known for his blonde hair and huge size, one of the strongest males we’ve ever observed! The dramatic stories from Madikwe is still going on. Kwandwe & Monomoholu regained control over the land. The fate of the remaining Addo boy is unknown since now he's the last one from the original 3-member coalition.

RE: Lion pictures and videos - titose - 03-27-2021
At only 5 years and 3 months old the young Mahiwa males are one of the most impressive male lions out there today, Madikwe NE.

The massive Judah/Ndaora of the Mbilimangenge male coalition on the Vumbura plains in a Hippo carcass, this must be one of the biggest lions ever seen. Sadly at the end of 2019 was killed by three young males!
