The same just happened to me when I was about to post the latest Scar video of the Kambula boys, @Ngonya posted it first
He beat me to the same video as well.

It's Snip Tailed Nkhulu.
That would explain it! Perhaps the video should be moved to the Nkuhlu thread.

I saw it too late, as there'd already been a few replies to the OP.

Umkumbe Lodge has come out and posted that there were originally 3 Gijima Males in the beginning, and that one was killed by the Ndhzengas. I think some of us here thought there were 3 at first, but a few argued against that. There certainly seemed to be 3 before the attack on Ubuso, in my view.
RE: Gijima coalition - Duco Ndona - 09-16-2024
There are also guides stating there were only two and as far as I know, no footage ever surfaced of three Gijimas.
Even if there was a third. I doubt he was involved in the clash as such.
RE: Gijima coalition - Mapokser - 09-16-2024
There were 3 in Kruger but only 2 crossed into SS.

Early in the morning, the two Gijima males were vocalising frequently, and we tracked them by following their calls. Eventually, we found them walking through thick bushes before they settled in a dense area to rest. Every so often, they glanced back in the direction they had come from, suggesting they were keeping an eye on something. In the distance, we could hear the faint calls of other lions, indicating there may have been some kind of altercation earlier.
Male lions often engage in territorial fights, and it's common for younger males to venture into the territories of established lions in hopes of claiming them. It is the responsibility of these territorial males to defend their domain and fend off any intruders.”
