Didn't know that, ty.

I remember now, that somebody said that 2 Muntshe pride males might have come from Mozambique also.

Some coalitions near the border might just move in Mozambique, for example that might be the case with 2 missing Gomondwane males.

No problem, my friend.

As for the coalitions you mentioned who dispersed to and/or from Mozambique, I want to add that the surviving young male lion who lost his brother to the Shishangaan males was found along the border of Mozambique after that encounter.
Do you know the name of that young lion that was found along the border of Mozambique? Is he doing okay there?

I have no idea tbh

Lions
• The Mountain Pride has been seen a few times this last month. We seem to be missing one lioness. At present there are four youngsters, six lionesses and one sub-adult male. This pride has mainly been moving in the central-northern reaches of the concession. Towards the middle of the month this pride managed to kill and feed on a Cape buffalo.

• We have been seeing the Shish Pride regularly this month. During the summer months we did not have many sightings of them as they moved out and to the south-west of the concession. During the drier months Shish Pride tend to like the area between the camp and Dumbana Pools, close to the N’wanetsi River. They have returned to this area again. They are often seen in the company of the Kumana Male. For a period this last month this pride was in the area of Ostrich Open Areas, where they took advantage of the lack of concentration of the male impalas, who were pre-occupied with the rut. A few of these male impalas ended up in the bellies of these lions. Shish Pride presently consist of five adult females and four youngsters. One of the lionesses has a damaged back leg and is limping, but still managing to keep up with the rest of the pride.

• The Mananga Pride have been seen a few times this month, mainly in the far western side of the concession, north of Gudzani Dam. They have, on occasion, been seen with Xihamham (one of the Shish Males). One of the Mananga lionesses has two small cubs. • At the beginning of the month we saw the pride from the north. They were in the far northern reaches of the concession and were seen in the company of one of the Shish Males.

• The Kumana Male has been seen regularly in the area near the lodges. He is often seen in the company of the Shish Pride and was seen mating with one of the lionesses this month. May was a difficult month for the Kumana Male. He is getting old now and other males (from outside the area) have started challenging him for his territory. He is looking a little worse for wear after these encounters. He has a new gash across his nose, his lip is drooping a bit more and his left front paw was injured, causing him to limp. It will not be long now before he gets challenged by males that are stronger than he is.

• The two remaining Shish Males have been seen a few times, mainly in the company of the Mananga Pride. These two male lions are getting old too and it is only a matter of time before they get challenged by other males. • Other lions: Two unknown young males were seen close to the camp (deep inside the territory of the Kumana Male) towards the end of the month. Towards the middle of the month there was a clash between the Kumana Male and an adult male lion who we believe might have come from Mozambique. Fortunately, although the Kumana Male was injured in the fight, he did manage to chase the intruder back towards the east.

1 of the 3 Mazithi/Tshokwane males. 
From recent sighting of Big On Wild - Wildlife Blog & Photography seems these boys maybe might try to take Nkhulu pride that was previously dominated by Mantimahles.

RE: Coalitions of Kruger National Park - Psyckoo - 06-12-2021

Hi everyone, when i read about actual coalitions, i see many time the name Old Tshkowane, Old Mazithi, Old Shukuza...
I wanted to ask did someone have more information about these coalition, who many they were, who many time they rules, their legacy ? Or we don't have much infos about them...

And finally who sired Renerskoppies males ? Mpondo or Old Sand river males ?

Thanks a lot
