Lions of Sabi Sands

Man Tinyo is one of those lions that stay looking beat up! His face is ragged, 1 front shoulder has a big knot or cyst and the other a patch of mange or something. He looks skinny and def needs a meal! He needs to rest up and get healthy . Im pulling for another few years with Tinyo and Nhena i hope!

His face is cut, his mouth swollen, that spot of possible mange as you mentioned. Now is the worst possible time for one of the B-Boys to develop health issues. Cutted and battered face has nothing to do with health lol... He is like that past few years.. Also he is skinny because he is currently mating, past few sightings always seen mating and not with the pride, and we can obiviously see his empty belly, again nothing to do with "health" Dont know what that patch is but its not mange, he has that for some time now but it looks like it doesnt affect him.. Tinyo is fine, getting old and few bruises, but in good condition for his age so stop with this narrative that he is not healthy.. You cant expect that old lion to be 100% healthy, its very rare, he will obiviously start to show signs of old age but when we are talking about not healthy lions then i think of lions like Scar Tumbela currently or Buddy from the past, or major limping lions DM etc.. Tinyo is nowhere near those conditions.. 
Ultimately we only have videos and photos to go off.
So we cant really say for sure if a lion is healty or not. Hairy Belly Matimba also looked healthy in November. Then in the span of just few months he turned skin over bones with wounds that just refused to heal. Before finally passing in January. A better question is. Can a coalition be expected to forfill its duties the next three years. And if not, when is the best opportunity for them to be ditched.

Hairy Belly was 14 at that time and become nomadic, at that age nomadic lions dont live much, it was expected, also HB was seen in February, he didn't past in January.. You never know how much lions will live, S. Matimbas got cubs at 12 and managed to protect them to independence pretty much.. And based of condition of S. Matimbas in 2017 /2018 nobody give them slight chance and people tought they would be dead in few days.. You never know in nature..

The worst time for Birminghams to show health issues would be when there would be plenty of cubs around in Kambula pride. Birminghams are not getting any younger and are unlikely to be able to carry another generation of cubs in the pride to adulthood. Now it seem to be perfect time for the pride to get new dominant males. Totally get your post @Potato , I suppose I am just a little sentimental, and in this instance perhaps nostalgic as well. Your comment makes total sense, and with nature being nature it may very well come to fruition. Cheers my friend!

Yeah, his face often shows the signs of Nehna's smacks, but those were the two things that stood out to me. Cheers my friend!

About that patch, idk what it is but i dont think its mange because theres no other patches on his body.. Nothing to claim that he is not healthy..

The Ntsevu/Kambula females were responding (welcoming) Othawa Male, as a new male coming into their territory, but Birmingham joins the roar to intimidate the intruder!
Its probably more that they told him to get lost. The last thing any lioness wants is invite more males in their territory.

Yeah, I never knew that roaring alongside your pride males means welcoming new male.. Narrative against Bboys is getting out of hand..all males that roar next to their territory apperantly want to overtake them lol.. 
Young sub adult male roaring with Tinyo and pride, and it means he welcoming new male on their father and mother territory?))
This is only usual territorial roar, nothing more. |
