Well, this make lion’s name is “Ginger” and he walks the Mfuwe Lodge region of South Luangwa. Yep, Ginger! His partner is Garlic.... Ginger and Garlic are quite well-known in their territory. It's interesting that he partnered with Garlic, a lion 2 years younger from the same pride. Ginger originally left with 2 other litter-mates but was seen years later alone. He then partnered with his much younger kin buddy. One of his brothers actually looked like a leopard cub from afar! Never seen such unique colors in lions. G&G are now 12/10 years old. These guys came up against the Hollywood Boys (from the Hollywood Pride, featured in several documentaries), I believe. Not sure if they succeeded in taking over Garlic and Ginger's pride or what happened overall. Updates are very scarce, it seems. 
Marlon du Toit: " I just love moments like this, a young male lion walking right by our car. He could have taken any route as we were on a big open part of the Luangwa River, yet he chose to walk in for a closer look.
He is full-bellied after eating a hippo and is on his way to the river for a drink. A safari like this in South Luangwa National Park @shentonsafaris will change your life, very special experience! "
Victoria Coombe: " When you’re the smallest cub in the pride, the safest place to hang out is tucked in tight with mum... "
Sachin Rai: " He stared at a herd of buffalo from the hill before descending and walking right past them. Wonder what was running in his mind :) "
Anyone know who this massive male is? Video claims he is the biggest lion on the Mara, but doesn't identify him. I know the video is 11 months old, but it might well still be relevant. Thanks!

If I'm not mistaken there were other brothers that disappeared years ago and these 2 big guys survive on! Thank you for that @BigLion39 I had never heard of either of them, but agree entirely, he is gorgeous, truly impressive. Very much appreciate the assist my friend!
Harman Singh Heer: " The last light reflected in her eyes like dying embers on a moonless night... "
Story of a legendary coalition in the National park of Nairobi in Kenya, close to the city and having only 100-150 km2. That can explain some unfortunate accidents when one of these males come to roam outside the park. I don't like to see this sort of pictures.
