After a long research, trying to find more pics of the N'waswitshaka male seen around the S79 road in Kruger National Park. Here another sighting of him posted by Latest Sightings on August 2016

Unfortunately, their attempt was unsuccessful, perhaps the next will be more promising.

Haha, Big Mak is the first one I instantly think of when discussing wide nosed lions.

Nice finds @"Timbavati", so Wide Nose is atleast 1 year older then other 3, based of those photos, he looks to be born around mid- late 2014 and is now around 7 yrs old.
Now we only need to figure out is he their brother or not.. It looks like he was seen with a pride regulary on s79, any picture of other members of that pride?
In 2016 old Nwaswitshaka where still dominant and had young cubs (current Nwaswitshakas), their territory was west of Skukuza, this is way to far from s79 for them to venture there:

Found the pictures from DiscoverKruger, Wide Nose comes from s79 pride, August 2016:

Does anyone know which males should be dominant in that area around 14-16?, Old Nkuhlu pride males right??

@Tr1x24 No one knows who that guy is. But some of us think maybe Freddy and limper were part of a bigger coalition that split. And that guy was part of it, definitely seems related to them in some way.
RE: N'waswitshaka males - Mdz123 - 08-11-2021
Who sired Freddy and Limper?

Not known, they came from Kruger..
RE: N'waswitshaka males - Brahim - 08-11-2021
Idk if old Nkhulu males ruled that part. 2014 onwards you have old jocks from s21 to lower sabie also.
RE: N'waswitshaka males - lionuk - 08-11-2021
Three of the N’waswishaka males seen were resting on the road before moving to a shady area not far from Selati Camp early this morning.
Only Amahle has been pictured here.
