Amazing the white gene is popping up everywhere! 

I don’t know much about the skorro pride, can someone please direct me to history or tell a brief history? Thank you!

As far as i know, Skorro name first started to be mentioned in early 2010, mainly thru 2 Skorro young males (Thanda Impi and bro) and later pride with N.Matimbas.

Not sure if theres any info about them before.

In the same road/same drive, probably very close to where the Mongawanes were, Osindile's natal pride, the Birminghams, were walking by:

Without the Mbiri males who seems to have abandoned the pride, they will be in serious trouble if bump onto the likes of the Mongawanes.

Previously the Mbiris were luck to have their cubs reaching adulthood despite abandoning them when they were 2 or less, let's see if the same happens now.

Cathan Moore announces the sighting of yet ANOTHER white lion cub wow ?

“ MASSIVE NEWS! A new WHITE LION has been found in the Umbabat!

This morning, Motswari guides found 2 adult lionesses with a new white lion cub. Given the location, it is most likely sired by the Birmingham males (Xakubasa).

Another interesting thing to note is that the females are most likely related to the pride of the 2 white lion females born back in 2007/8 at Ntsiri (Umbabat) as that was the only pride known to carry the recessive gene in the northern timbavati/umbabt.”

Is this the same who was speculated to be from Skorro pride, or new one?

Does the Torchwood Male also carry the white gene, or just Osindile?
