I think they're dominating the pride where their aunts are on.
Apparently they are from the Dundee Pride and the River Pride of Klaserie. Is there a direct link between the Klaserie River Pride and the Timbavati River Pride?
I think there are too many River Prides, with the Sand River Pride, Laserie River Pride, Timbavati River Pride, and I have recently seen mention of a plain River Pride. Whew, for a novice like myself it certainly doesn't help when trying to learn who all of the players in this huge drama are. Sort of like the first time you read the Lord of The Rings books, with the similar sounding names Sauron and Saruman :)
All the River Pride who now are in Timbavati originally comes from the River Pride and Dundee pride in Klaserie, all are breakaways

Two of the Nharhu males patrolling the southern section of their territory on an early morning game drive. Both paused momentarily to listen intently for signs of their brother and the river pride lionesses. Shortly after, they moved into the Nhlaralumi river and lead guides toward a second possible den site where cubs could be hidden. At least three cubs have been confirmed after being sighted at a den site more toward the north of the territory within a confluence of two main seasonal river systems that slices through the pride’s homeland. We are all hoping that the second den reveals a few more cubs. We shall keep you guys posted in the weeks to come

One of the Nharhu Male Lions , practicing what we refer to as the flehmen grimace after one of the lionesses urinated in the river bed.
The function of the flehmen response is within-species communication. Identifying reproductive status – male individuals commonly use the flehmen response as an olfactory mechanism for identifying the reproductive state of females of the same species based on pheromones in the female's urine or genitals.

On a recent safari we encountered the three Nharu Male Lions with two Lionesses relaxing in the Nhlaralumi River , they eventually got up and moved into shade , but two of the males decided to first share a drink of fresh water seeping from below the ground.
