RE: Matimba Sons - vinodkumarn - 01-10-2019 Credits: Chad cocking Goodness knows what happened to these boys, but it appears that the Mbiri males have been involved in a pretty rough fight with some other lions! Although both appear okay, the bite and scratch marks tell of a vicious battle. At first is suspected they may merely have gotten stuck into one another, but the wounds seem excessive, even for them. We have not seen or heard any other male lions in the area, so perhaps the skirmish took place beyond our borders...time will tell if this threat persists for the Mbiri males at Tanda Tula ![]() *This image is copyright of its original author

Shortly after these pictures were taken, the Mbiri males went on the offensive and had the two ladies running for their lives. ??? ![]() *This image is copyright of its original author ![]() *This image is copyright of its original author Mbiris are not taking foot off the gas at all :) Always looking for new pride to take control of :) RE: Matimba Sons - Matimbalani - 07-12-2019 (07-12-2019, 09:50 PM)Potato Wrote: From Kambaku lodges: Who is the dominant male for the Ross pride? RE: Matimba Sons - Potato - 07-13-2019 Not sure if it is Black Dam male or pride is vacated. Mbiris are not taking foot off the gas at all and still looking more more prides to take control of.

RE: Matimba Sons - Matimbalani - 07-18-2019 (07-12-2019, 09:50 PM)Potato Wrote: From Kambaku lodges: To answer my own earlier question: it seems as if the Mbiri's did have cubs with the Ross pride (probably their very first set of cubs.) Not sure what became of those cubs, but since the Mbiri's have been operating in that area, I would assume the pride didn't have any males. I hope their presence doesn't draw in the Mayambula's who are a bigger pride and the Ross don't suffer the same fate as the Zebenine lionesses. RE: Matimba Sons - Potato - 07-18-2019 For females distance between Ross pride and Zebenine is really huge and it seem imposible any run in between them. Males are covering much larger arenas (especially Mbiris which are know for their activity) and still it is just single run in as Mbiris are not used to wander so far west (at least untill now).
