The death of any lion is sad but when is a lion that you know is even more, i hope he isn't him, he was still in his prime.

One of the Nharhu males on territorial patrol at Tanda Tula Safari Camp five days ago.
Unfortunately, Mpohlo (third member) wasn't seen in around 2 weeks and half.

Nhrhus in the past few months shifted their territory even further away from Walkers River Lodge into what used to be Myambula pride territory. That is quite far from WRL so even if Nharhu male passed away it doesn't mean that dead lion found on WRL is him.

It might not be him, but theres no missing lion around except him..

Also lions dont neccesery die in their area, they mostly just wander off and die, they dont think of their territory when they are about to die..

Junior for example died in South Manyeleti, even seen in Sabi Sands day before or so, far away from his territory and pride..

We do not have updates on 5 Vuela males which frequent this arena. I do not know if Dundee male was seen since dead body was found. Might also be that it is some nomadic male which unfortunately bumped into 2 Monwanas which were in the region or the sub adult male from Giraffe pride. On top of that we do not have any updates from arena to the west of WRL so there are plenty of possibility.

That is why I am not saying it is impossible. In fact I mentioned this possibility right after we get news that body dead lion has been found although because of the distance between WRL and the Nharhus nowdays territory I claimed to rather unlikely and I still stand by my words.

As per the pics, doesn't seems to be Mpohlo the dead male.

The Vuyela males were found a few weeks ago looking in top shape, the Giraffe young male was seen a week ago with the Giraffe pride.

But the body was found week or two ago.

They are spending more of their time on Mafufunyane and Africa on foot.  So, I doubt that could be one of the Vuyela males

There were moving as far and even further south. Aside of Monwanas, Vuelas are the males I would expect to see in that arena the most.

Three of them were seen on April 13th, they were quite far outside of the their territory and had been in the area for about 2 weeks. They are mostly seen as 3 males and 2 females ,but It's varied pver all time that they were seen
