By Greame Mitchley, the White Dot female at 18yo, still in great condition.

Quite possibly the oldest known lioness in Kruger, sister of the Matimbas:

She could beat Loonkito for the known longest living wild lion if she survives for another year, and given her current condition and the great state of the Birmingham pride, I hope she will

Another Ngala video, lions from around 3:00 onward, looks like the denning female and her previous 1:1 twins litter, the inbetween covid one, now grown up (going by what the guide said). The denning lioness is also in a part of previous EP8 on the same channel (8:00 onward):

Poor cub is already having a hard go at life. Lost an ear and half of its tail already. Pride was fighting over a giraffe carcass and I'm guessing he/she got caught in the middle of it.

The wound seems healed and it would be exceptionally brutal for the pride to inflict that amount of damage. Especially seeing this is the only cub suffering from such abuse. 

I guess he got a really close call with hyenas or some other predator.

Is White Dot the mother of the White Male or his sister?


RE: Birmingham Pride of lions - Mapokser - 07-11-2024

I don't think so, in fact the white female, if I remember correctly, isn't a littermate of the white male.

White Dot is mother of the Bboy Nhenha and the Red Road male IIRC.

no,  the White female is daughter of Bus.   the now deceased legend.


the white male is son of Black Dot (one of the two Red Road sisters)

WD is also mother of Osindile.


RE: Birmingham Pride of lions - RookiePundit - 07-13-2024

Nhenha, Red Road, Osindile/Mongawane - that's an impressive bunch of sons to have considering none of them are littermates and each made their own path.

The White Queen




RE: Birmingham Pride of lions - Tr1x24 - 08-17-2024

Birmingham White male and bro:



Unfortunatley, apparently 3rd brother was not seen with them in a while.

This was rumor few months ago, then in April I posted a sighting in this thread where all 3 males where together, but now reading the comments that sighting was from January..


RE: Birmingham Pride of lions - Mapokser - 08-17-2024

It was said the third brother was killed, dunno if this is reliable but we've not seen 3 in a while.

White male is impressive and handsome tho.
