Absolutely the best news. But where's the mohawk BDM? Remember he was completely alone in Thorneybush. Was he not in fact a BDM because he doesn't look like these four?

Walkers River Camp (1 of core territories of Hercules/Sumatra) is literaly on Thornybush border, and Sumatra/Hercules where seen not long ago in northern Thornybush. Ross males are like 10 km south east of northern Thornybush.

Xikukutsus where for months in Sandringham, 1-2 months ago 1 returned and was seen in Thornybush with BD female, after that we again didn't see them, and Mapoza is seen regulary, that means that Xikukutsus are most time in Sandringham..

The forum IS in big part about discusions. If someone wants updates only he can like some facebook page or group (where there are no discusions) or he can just scroll through those discusions on wildfact. I do not see any problem with either. NO one here is forced to read or to participate in those discusions.

Yes you're right. The Mlowathi males were average sized lions, Like the other Mapogo males, except for Dreadlocks and Makhulu.

I do not think so. There you can read opinion of James Tyrell on Majingilanes and KNP males:
"Todd these are indeed very big males, definitely bigger that the Majingilane. They have been around our Southern areas once or twice more since this sighting, and their paw prints alone dwarf those of the Majingilane. As Thelma says, 4 vs 2 might be too much for them to handle if they do bump into one another, and with one of the Kruger males having a lame hip, it would be fair to assume that the Majingilane males would come out on top in an encounter"

and the opinion of Sabi Sabi guide Ben Coley on KNP male and 2 last Mapogos which even through very in good condition, they were defninitelly well past their prime:

"Thanks for all the comments everyone. I hope it was a fitting article for such an influential coalition! News from the fight yesterday morning is that one was seen briefly with quite bad injuries to his testicles amongst other areas…but we don’t know the extent of the injuries just yet. We did find tracks for one deep in south of the reserve this morning but couldn’t locate him. It seems I underestimated the Kruger males. Although the remaining Mapogo are larger, I can only posit that their desire has left them and they merely seek to live out the rest of their days in relative peace."

It’s been almost two years since the six young Blackdam males left Thornybush on their exploratory travels, so typical of young male lions. Four of them returned a few days ago, and waisted no time in bringing down a large buffalo bull south of Royal Malewane. With these four incoming beasts in Thornybush and the other two Black dam males in Timbavati. A potential coalition of six healthy and strong young males is forming in the horizon. Interesting times ahead

The next mega coalition of Timbavati seems possible if they do reunite.
