What a fantastic photos!
The white liones are really looking excellent. The Birmingham females very strong and successfully mothers!
The BYM is a tank!. One of the most massive prides in the Greater Kruger alongside the Ntsevu pride.
On the lion front, the limping Nharhu male was found with the older River Pride lioness one evening, and then a couple of days later Ginger was doing a bush walk with his guests in the east when they came across him on foot! In typical lion fashion, once he saw the people, he got up and moved off to some cover. The other two Nharhu males were found one afternoon with a zebra kill to the west of Safari Camp, and the next morning they were sleeping off their fat bellies in the Nhlaralumi Riverbed, south of camp. Once they roused themselves, they moved back east in search of the rest of the pride. There was also a report of a portion of the Giraffe Pride in the west this week, as well as the Monwana male lions who seem to have now settled as the Giraffe Pride’s dominant males.

In my personal opinion, One of the most braves coalitions of the Timbavati area without a doubt!
Agree, Nharhus are very confident lions from the beginning of their dominance..
Is it know exact date when Nharhus where born?

So i was looking on some pictures of Trilogy males from the past, how old are these guys exactly?? When they started to been seen on western boundary of Timbavati and east Klaserie in late 2014/early 2015 they where quit old already :

They must be Matimbas age right, born around 2006?
Also those Klaserie Lodges at that time when they came, they where calling them already "Legends of Klaserie" so they must have rich past already deeper in Klaserie..
So around 2015/16 they dominated Hercules, Ross, Ross breakeaway, Giraffe and Avoca prides?? Thats very impressive.. Until 1 male died in march 2016 which lead to losing those prides over time to Ross and Mapoza males.. Did they sire any offspring in those prides?
Also i read somewhere a time ago that Trilogy males sired Vuyela males, is there any evidence of that?
"They must be Matimbas age right, born around 2006?"
No idea.
"Did they sire any offspring in those prides?"
They had some in Hercules pride. I am quite sure they did not sire any cubs in Ross breakaway and Avoca prides. I do not think they left somethink in Giraffe pride either as as far as I am awared they started to interact with that pride in mid 2015 and lose it just around 1 year later to Mapoza males, but I am not sure. I have no idea if they have laft somethink in Ross pride, but by now that pride is no more anyway.
"Also i read somewhere a time ago that Trilogy males sired Vuyela males, is there any evidence of that?"
There are no evidence what so ever as to where Vuyela males came from and who sired them.
