Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.
Shame that the Mangheni pride are always so unlcuky! So many cubs die one after one, and then the dominant male also dies, now they desperately are needing a pride male, PC males and NK are good candidates, even if he kills the last cub the pride will have plenty more since they have 6 lionesses

Yes, PC males are the best candidates, they are strong and can hold on for a while in this area.

I just really want to see him to be a King that he deserves to be.
Even tho we might no see him that often anymore, i kinda hope he goes east into Kruger, theres no young males of his age with who he can partner up here and he wont become dominant in Singita with 2 PC males there, in Kruger he might find some partners.
There is no lion right or something that states that each male lion one day get his own pride. Nym probably will be one of those lions that wont for the foreseeable future.
Unless there is a mayor shift in the dynamics again.
Seeing his lack of long term options right now, it may be best for him to stay nomadic.
Roam the land and fend for his own for a bit.. Perhaps mate with the occasional wandering female.
Just survive and hope for the best.

It is all fine but lion males have, so to say, short shelf life: 3-4 years at most, even less for single males. NYM is already 5 years old, clocks is ticking. In a year and a half Kambula subs will start challenging residents.

Very happy to see DM with a full belly again. For a while there he was looking pretty thin. Looks like this is from WE. Hopefully someone will post the footage on YT.
