RE: Other male lion coalitions from Masai Mara - sunless - 12-20-2024
A NEW COALITION FORMING???
Great to see these two lone nomads having hooked up together! The collared male is Ordikdik Boys named Orkuret while the other one is Sankai Boys named LeMoniko. They were spotted here hanging out with a baby giraffe kill!
Life is full of challenges for male lions. Orkuret is the remaining member of original 3 Ordikdik Boys (dominant over Sankai pride for a few years). LeMoniko is the last standing member of 4 Sankai Boys, sired by Jesse2 & Frank2. Each of them has lost all brothers. Best wishes to their friendship.

Yeah good to see both of them. They seem to hang around Talek Gate which is a bad area, loaded with bomas and cattle hence why they collared Orkuret. Hope they stick together.

Yeah that map is cool just some of it is a little confusing, maybe not entirely accurate. 2 small things I can point out quickly Belly Hair and buddy control Henry's pride and a pride in Serenghetti. They're far from nomads. Also Iceman and Olbarnoti are not nomads either. They control Anagama/Ooloololo pride and possibly Owino pride. They might have gotten ousted from Owino tho. Map is missing 2 young Offbeat boys sired by MNC Boys up in Oloisikut. These are the 2 that caught Enkong'u months ago.
Anyway cool map, MPCP puts out these maps too pretty much like this one. It's nice to see on paper most of the males and coalitions. Makes it easier to follow!
RE: Other male lion coalitions from Masai Mara - BigLion39 - 12-26-2024
Here's some pics and short history of the original 6 Enkoyunai Boys, now 4, sired by Ololparpit and Olbarnoti.
When they left the pride and by the time they showed up at Offbeat only 4 were together. Then Saningo popped up later and his tail was missing. Doda never showed, we lost him in between that time they left their natal pride. So that left 5 until earlier this year 2024 we lost Jicho. A big blow to loose him as he was always with Lenkoe and Mwana fighting and keeping the territory secure. So Lenkoe, Mwana, Enkong'u, and Saningo are alive and well nowadays.

Orkirikoi (Marsh Boy): Did not know a wild lion can somehow look obese especially for Orkirikoi as he is in a semi nomad state right now.
RE: Other male lion coalitions from Masai Mara - KM600 - 12-30-2024
All 5 Rongai boys were seen heading deep into MYF area..

RE: Other male lion coalitions from Masai Mara - KM600 - 01-06-2025
I think this happened in MYF area, as Rongai boys have been seen there and Kissinger males are located round there too. Oloshipa had a confrontation with them 3 months ago or so. Lorkulup was said to be 1km away from the area this took place.
The boy seems to be fine, looks like they just wanted to establish dominance, has a few marks on his back but nothing that looks serious. All Rongai Rockers were chased with him getting caught. I hope this has the same impact as Olobor being singled out before, he never made a mistake like that ever again.

All 5 Rongai rockers reunited
RE: Other male lion coalitions from Masai Mara - KM600 - 01-07-2025
Forgotten to mention, the Kissinger males were chased off by rangers in order for them to save the Rongai boy.. Judging by their behaviour in the video it doesn’t look like they would have killed him anyways but just wanted to mention that. Guessing they chased them off after that video ended. One of the spokespeople mentioned he was ‘proud of the rangers for saving the boy’ which to me sounds so ridiculous, it was a fair encounter, and one that shouldn’t have never been intervened in, especially by humans.
Anyways, Paradise Pride lost another cub too. The first one was lost the other week but I can’t remember how it died, if memory serves correct it may have been hyenas. Topi boys and Bila Shakas had the first confrontation in Paradise Pride territory, or atleast on the boundary, and rangers believe that’s how the cub was likely killed. 3 Bila Shakas then obviously showed up at Marsh Pride territory and were pushed back. The latest cub was seen in the jaws of a hyena. Out of the newest litter of 3, only one is still alive.

I respect how you feel about intervention ,but personally don't mind them saving him. Just hope none fall victim the same way olobor.
RE: Other male lion coalitions from Masai Mara - KM600 - 01-07-2025
This beating is very much worth it if Oleku can make this stick and join the coalition. I heard all 7 Topi boys are together now, together as in the Marsh area but they are pretty much never seen together, usually in groups of 3 / 4. Take that with a grain of salt tho, I’ve not seen anything about the 7th brother who likes to stay behind reuniting with his brothers in a video, just ppl claiming he’s there. Looks like Bila Shakas aren’t interested in fighting it out for Marsh Pride, so this seems permanent for now. Will be interesting to see what pride they’ll target next given the crazy size of their coalition already, never mind if they add another member.
