Did he interact with entire pride and those two lionesses brokeaway with Skorro's cubs after new males came in or did he just interact with those two lionesses? "dont call them Birmingham, it gets confusing" That depends when that brokeaway has formed up.

RE: Lions of Manyeleti - Potato - 08-08-2020 Mbiri pride in first part of the video and then Orpen males with Koppies pride with cubs. Guide said that there are no sight of young males within Mbiri pride and so potentially they moved off to start their nomadic life. Also on of the Mbiri females was seen mating with Orpen male Buddy.

Here is video : RE: Lions of Manyeleti - Tr1x24 - 08-10-2020 RE: Lions of Manyeleti - Potato - 08-13-2020 Previous updates from Imbali I was posting in Coalitions of Kruger thread, but actually I feel they fit better to Lions of Manyeleti thread as it is adjusted to Manyeleti region and so here I post Imbali update for July: Along with the uncertainties of lockdown, the lion dynamics have also been in constant fluctuation throughout this month as several unfamiliar faces—and tracks—have been spotted around the concession. We have been finding one set of very large male lion tracks moving around on our western boundary. On one morning, we followed the tracks all the way the from our generator on our western boundary with Manyeleti all the way down to “KNP Corner”, which is our southernmost boundary. A couple of months ago, we also posted an exciting update on our Hamilton’s Facebook page about two nomadic male lions who were seen marking territory and roaring around the camp. These male lions seem to have also arrived from west of the concession, possibly from the Sabi Sands. We have been lucky enough to see them twice again through the month of July. The first sighting was of them crossing east over Middle Road heading towards Hamilton’s, though the guides lost visual of them shortly after they crossed out of our concession. The second sighting was on the Old S36 Road across from Hamilton’s, and we found them lying in the grass. From what we could determine, the newcomers seem to have found our resident Hamilton’s Pride, but it seems as though our female lions made sure to let them know that their presence was certainly not welcome. One of the males was badly injured and the other could not put any weight on one of his front paws. The faces of both of the male were showed signs of deep scratches, and the pale-faced male face was extremely swollen. We sat with them for a while until they moved further into the shade. Though we went back to look for them in the afternoon, we never found them again. As many prey species are drawn to the Imbali waterhole for water, lions from all around have enjoyed the easy hunting opportunities around the lodge. One afternoon, we received a call on the radio “3 Ngala [lions] drinking at the waterhole! ”. This of course was followed by much excitement and scrambling to get into vehicles with our cameras, etc. and we went across to find two rather large females enjoying a late afternoon pitstop. One female was much darker but smaller than her sister. Unfortunately, being unknown to us. they were a little skittish but did manage to settle down after a while. We managed to gradually get into position for some amazing photos. As for our resident lion pride, we have been hearing a lot of calling coming from the block opposite to Hoyo Hoyo Safari Lodge. It seems as though the Imbali Pride has been staying well-hidden with the cubs, especially considering the number of new lions that have been moving around the concession.

A lot of lodge feeds have been coming in, things are getting exciting, for sure.

Will be interesting to see how this situation turns out if they stick around, they might lost a battle, but they have numbers, both Hamiltons and Imbali pride males are lone males.. RE: Lions of Manyeleti - Tr1x24 - 08-14-2020 It seems that 3 Mbiris with Nharu male are out for good, Orpens and females wont tolerate them if they return.. I hope they dont get lost in Kruger like 5 Nharu males, i want to see Thanda Imps offspring around, they will be beasts..
