Where did you see this? I don't know that I have seen a pic of him where I could see his teeth since then.

Seems the Skorro YM of Orpen had abandoned his efforts in Sabi sand and was seen bank on Shindzela. Here’s now to hopeful union with Avoca YM or (The Nephew) Birmingham YM

Limping Monwana male. He's definitely looking in rougher shape than usual, not sure exactly where his partner the Giraffe male is at the moment. Saw someone say he might be off mating with unnamed lioness/lionesses so hopefully he'll link back up with (LMM) and secure a meal before too long.
RE: Lions of Timbavati - BigLion39 - 04-29-2024
So we saw Osindile alone a few weeks ago posted. If I remember correctly the update kind of eluded to Torchwood might be missing? Anybody know the status of these 2 boys at the moment,?

Tanda Tula update
Having spoilt us the week before, the lions were not quite as cooperative this week, but were still present through most of the week. The Mayambula Pride returned one morning with a total of 15 members together, making us ponder on just what is happening with the pride dynamics. The roars of the Birmingham Breakaways can be heard most evenings from the far south-east, but with the Vuyela males replying in emphatic fashion with their booming roars, it appears as though both coalitions are content with one another’s presence in the area, as long as both parties stick to their respective territories. Sitting with two Vuyela males one evening as they listened to the not-all-to-distant roars from the Birmingham Breakaways to the south, they replied with some roars of their own, but seemed happy that they had announced themselves and got up and slowly sauntered off back to the north. The River Pride girls were seen several kilometres to the north of our boundary but made a random appearance in the south of our concession towards the end of the week, however they did not have their cubs with them, so goodness knows where they left them! The Sark Breakaway Pride was also around for a few days this week in the central and western regions, and from the reports I got, it seems as though all 13 members were present (excluding the Vuyela males) – this is good news as there had been reports that one of the young males was no longer with us; I sadly wasn’t on drive during that time, so didn’t get to see them myself, but I am hoping that they spend more time in the area next week.

I did the same thing….I said ‘wow he’s looking so much older’. Lol.
RE: Lions of Timbavati - Potato - 04-30-2024
The larger breakaway group of the river pride made a rare appearance close to camp. Their visit was short, after bringing down an impala, the roars of a Vuyela male sent the pride scurrying back to the east in a hurry.
