Yeah second male, last time was one of the younger boys. They also killed one of their sisters when they arrived on the scene last year.

Apparently, the Hyena was probably carrying another hyena. Possibly a Brown Hyena. Maybe I'm wrong.

Bubezi the legendary King of Thornybush in 2004, at the age of 8 yrs old. This guy was massive, his skull is said to be one of the largest lion skulls on record. 
Bubezi/Ring also fathered to Marvin, the dominant male of the dominant male, Marvin litter mate, joined forces with Bubezi. A father/son coalition. 
note: Bubezi is the father of the Black dam male

The mighty Ring/Bubezi with his son and partner in Thornybush in 2008. This young blond-maned male lion is litter mate of Marvin (the Monwana male) while Marvin took-over the Northern aka Monwana pride, his brother, took-over the Southern aka Black dam pride with his father, Bubezi aka Ring.

Btw, once as I can, will post family tree of the Black dam and Monwana prides, with dates of birth and death of the members from 1996 till 2010's more or less.
