Are those the same whiskers pattern?
Upper line of whisker sorts, on right side of the photo (lion's left side) is entirely different, the bottom image that line is really straight, in the upper image that same line is broken up.

As I did this comparison I was thinking that were the same males.

That's also interesting.
Being honest. If we have in count that the first photo was taken in Dec 2019 and the other photo around 2010/2011 can make sense that the whiskers pattern could look a bit different

Indeed @"TinoArmando" , you could certainly be right, the difference I circled may very well have been caused by an injury of some sort, especially with that amount of time involved, he has no doubt been involved in several conflicts in that amount of time, and the three you circled are clearly undeniable, that notch in his nose is a certain match, to be sure.

Hello Everyone
I would like know and if anyone wants help on the ID of this boy. He was seen near Crocodile Bridge in Shishangeni area. He isn't one of the Shishangeni males and neither the Gomondwane males.
There were just two old males looking for some shade. I was debating about this with the moderator @BA0701.
This male has a few scars that will help on the ID of him. I'll start with a images. Then, If you want you are free to share your opinion (If is with respect more than welcome!)

Great post @"TinoArmando" You may very well have found him, after having been missing for so long. It will be amazing if this is him.

between July 2019 and Dec 2019 but definitely 2019

I think there was already discussion here about this male (or it was another one?) , if he is one of the Othawas, if im not mistaken..
In my opinion its unlikely its him, 1st whisker line dont match and theres a lot of males with 1 dot over whisker lines.. Yea whisker spots can deform a bit over years and with cuts, but this whisker is not even close and i dont see any scars around that area..
Cut on the nose is the same, but that could be just coinciedence..
Shame we dont have photo of the left side whisker spots..

As far I remember,This is the first time that I posted something about this unknown male. In fact I find this while I was trying to post something in Coalitions of Kruger National Park thread

Three same scars in the nose are the same. I doubt that exist those kind of coincidences. Anyway, the point here is know which lion he could be or from which coalition he belongs too
Let's see if we find something about him
