RE: The Birmingham Males - The Infamous - 09-05-2018
After the missing Mapogo, we have another one which has vanished.I do not exclude the possibilty that humans could had some implications in this dissapearance.But who knows, maybe is still alive somewhere!?!? In the lions world this kind of miracles have happened before,but i think there are slim chances...

Unfortunately, I think he's dead. He could have gone into the KNP where there are no updates, but I find this scenario very unlikely. Assuming if he did leave to look for new females, I would think that he would head into the direction that he's been previously. He had been in Sabi Sabi in the past hunting buffalo so would think he would head in this direction. Also, that area had been vacant for a long time when the Charleston left so he must of known so for the lack of roaring from dominant males.
I think you probably touched on one of the most logical scenarios ... he was injured while they were hunting buffalo and either he still hasnt recovered or he has passed on
Do we know if he was in good health during his last sighting?

MALAMALA TODAY: September 4th&5th. Lions: The lioness from the Kambula pride that is denning near Maxim’s Lookout was viewed at her den with her 3 cubs. 4 other Kambula lionesses were seen near Confluence Crossing. The 6th lioness and a Gowrie male spent most of yesterday in front of Rattray’s Camp. Another Gowrie male was found on our airstrip.

The Kambula/Birmingham cubs with the Sabi Sands royal lineage are fattening up nicely. It's been said before, but the Kambula/Ntsevu lionesses are massive. In terms of size, the mind boggles to think how a Kambula/Matimba mating might have turned out. Still, I'm impressed by how many cubs the BBoys have produced, though it remains to be seen how many reach adulthood. Credit: image by Daniele Ardengo, posted September 6, 2018

Birmingham Nhenha - Credit: Londolozi Blog- 7 Sep 2018 by Alex Jordan
After following one of the Birmingham male lions one early morning on the scent trail of females of the Ntsevu pride he locked eyes on what he had been searching for. The Ntsevu females were lying up at a pan only one hundred meters from where he spotted them a few seconds before this picture was taken.

Meanwhile the Kambula mother with the younger cubs at Rattray's has moved to the Maxim's Lookout den where her sister has been keeping the older cubs.
