RE: History most brutal killer, the Majingilane Male Lions - LionKiss - 02-19-2016 I worry about these cubs, the Majingilane are quite old but still strong, nevertheless in a confrontation with younger stronger males for the pride take over it is not certain who might win, if they lose those cubs will pay the price, lets hope they will make it. RE: History most brutal killer, the Majingilane Male Lions - Tshokwane - 02-20-2016 Hugo Breed Wildtography: Two of the Majingilane having a drink together. Scar Nose on the left, Hip Scar on the right. You can clearly see Scar Nose is a bigger male, not just for the mane, but in body size. *This image is copyright of its original author Leopard Hills Private Game Reserve: Majingilane male and Othawa youngster sharing a moment at the water's edge. Hip Scar *This image is copyright of its original author Two of the Othawa Cubs trying to stay as low as possible when one of the Majingilane Males warned them that they were getting too close to the section of the Buffalo he was feeding on. The Male's paw came up and he placed it carefully between the cub and himself. An Elephant joined them for a short while as he stood watching the pride of lions, it disturbed the feeding for a moment as he gave them a very short lived charge and decided it was better to move on and continue feeding.

RE: History most brutal killer, the Majingilane Male Lions - Shaudimela - 02-20-2016 Hip scar looks skinny... ? RE: History most brutal killer, the Majingilane Male Lions - Tshokwane - 02-20-2016 Quote:Hip scar looks skinnyA bit yeah. But I don't think there's much to worry about. i think it stands out that he's slim because his brother is bigger, but aside that, a nice meal will fill him up again. RE: History most brutal killer, the Majingilane Male Lions - LionKiss - 02-20-2016 the first photo of #246 shows a significant difference between Scar Nose and Hip Scar, HS is very skinny at his lower back, this is the most vulnerable point of all lions but gives them a great flexibility, in their fights between them this point they attack to kill each other, even cubs bite each other at this point RE: History most brutal killer, the Majingilane Male Lions - Tshokwane - 02-21-2016 Inyati Game Lodge: Majingilane male lions and Othawa pride have finished the buffalo they killed yesterday morning, they were just lying around the whole day. *This image is copyright of its original author *This image is copyright of its original author And one more of Hip Scar *This image is copyright of its original author
RE: History most brutal killer, the Majingilane Male Lions - Pckts - 02-21-2016 Look at those fat bellies, haha RE: History most brutal killer, the Majingilane Male Lions - Tshokwane - 02-23-2016 This is from a couple of days back, I didn't notice there was a video of it. Credits to Khimbini Wildlife Videos Crocodile killed a buffalo calf male lion(Scarnose of Majingilane coalition) considered stealing the carcass but couldn't brave swimming past the crocodile to get to carcass. Watch the crocodile pushes the carcass to the deeper and more the centre of dam. As always, the Majingilane show the power of the brotherhood. You can't do something on your own? You get your brothers and you get it done. And anyone that doesn't like it has to move or it's removed... RE: History most brutal killer, the Majingilane Male Lions - LionKiss - 02-23-2016 very well said, the Majingilane will not, for sure, stay in the history as brave warriors but as thoughtful strategists, and this charecteristc allowed them to be still around and unharmed. even during the recent events with the Ginger/Matimba, it looks that they didn't get involved, even though one of the Majins was around there. RE: History most brutal killer, the Majingilane Male Lions - Tshokwane - 02-23-2016 Quote:even during the recent events with the Ginger/Matimba, it looks that they didn't get involved, even though one of the Majins was around there.I don't think so. The Majingilane are far away to the west while the situation with the Matimba male happened in the east. Quote:the Majingilane will not, for sure, stay in the history as brave warriors but as thoughtful strategists, and this charecteristc allowed them to be still around and unharmed. Now, I agree that they are clever strategists, as far as it goes in lion style. But I want to know @LionKiss , what is for you the mark of a "brave warrior"? Getting killed for nothing? Drifting away and get yourself surrounded and beaten, possibly killed by rival males? RE: History most brutal killer, the Majingilane Male Lions - LionKiss - 02-24-2016 @Majingilane, this a very reasonable human way of thinking but Lions are not humans Lions are driven by their instincts and emotions, even humans react sometimes like this and you can see different behavior even in the same coalition, even the same lion could act differently under the similar cirumstances. for example MrT run away the night Kinky Tail was killed but he did not run away against the Selatis the day he died. Makalu and PB run away that day and became nomads. The Majingilane are smart they act all together, they don't take risks individually, even when they killed that Othawa sub adult about a year ago they surrounded all 3 of them, the play safe. In the history of mankind there are several examples where humans reacted like Kinky Tail and MrT the time the died, one example is the Battle of Alamo or the Battle of Thermopyle were a handful of soldiers fought an uneven battle against a superior enemy knowing in advance that they will die. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_the_Alamo https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Thermopylae |
