"Not that has been reported, They dont have to have injuries because if it was them in a 2vs1 fight if they where lucky they possibly only got smaller scratches.
Its only speculations but everything point at the matshapiri males.
And yes the matimba male is lucky to be alive."

what exactly points that it was Matschapiri vs Ginger Matimba?

I think there more indications that it was 3 BBoys.

Well... This is the answer from matshapiri Facebook 

Matshapiri Male Lions
Yes but what he dosnt know is that all 5 Birmingham males was at nkorho that night.

@LionKiss , this comments are from Sean  Cresswell... He wrote the note about the  Injured matimba..
Hi Blair, yes both Matshipiri males have been in the Sand River for the majority of the year, only leaving its banks for a couple of days at a time. However, they have spent most of their time further downstream (close to 10km downstream) from where the two Matimba males have been territorial; hardly any previous contact between the two coalitions is the result. From where the ginger/blonder male disappeared, it is equal distant to where the Matshipiri males were (on the 8th) and to Nkoro Lodge (in the opposite direction) and northern Mala Mala where three Birmingham males were found on the morning of the 9th, around 5km in either direction. The day before, five Birmingham males were on Nkoro, and all five only reunited on the 10th, again in that region; two were therefore unaccounted for from 8 – 10 February. As there were no confirmed sightings of all Birmingham males or the Matshipiri males over that short time it could have been either coalition moving through the region in question. Whichever it was, it would have been a reach out of their usual movements and into Matimba territory which is what makes it so interesting.

@Shaudimela

since nobody knows if the Matshipiris have some kind of injuries it still is uncertain,
but the question is still unanswered: "who inflicted such serious injuries to one of the BBoys and some minor (face scars) to the other. For sure BBos fought against some other Lion.

the link works fine for me, it does not worth copy/paste because there are photos and maps of the battle movements

Thank you! I've been reading the Londolozi blog for about two years and I kind of stumbled upon this site. It helps put faces with names and locations.

Thanks, that was actually just posted by @lioncrazy I believe on the previous page, after reading that you know what came to mind...

A lion pride reminds me of a more primitive version of a Human Tribe at conflict with another. Conquer the land, take the resources for yourself. It just seems so primitive yet so similar to human history.

RE: the Matimba coalition - lioncrazy - 03-01-2016

Anyword about the 2 southern matimbas since the fight??


RE: the Matimba coalition - LionKiss - 03-01-2016

No, as far as I am aware of,
I presume they recovering from the fights, especially Ginger, eat, then they will try to find each other,
I would like to believe that the rangers are searching for them to document their reunion.
