I suspect Limper contributes more than we think and know. Reply

Found nice photo of Skorro Jr.,one of his brothers (not sure who, might be Scar) with last Old Avoca/Giraffe male in mid 2019 :

By the looks of the body size compared to his brother, Skorro Jr. might be a bit younger then we taught and born in later litters. 

Also found nice photo of Limper from mid 2018, from Tintswalo Lodge:

The large Tumbela male momentarily pauses between roaring to listen out for competition.
And competition could soon start heating up! Another young coalition known as the Plains Camp Males, were found no more than 2km away from the two Tumbela males.

"Both the Othawa Pride and the Tumbela males were found in close proximity to the two Plains Camp males this morning but as night fell both groups moved their separate ways with no drama playing out."

These two have nice big jaws and wide noses which remind me of Junior, the Orpen male, and the shape of his face.  As their manes get thicker they are looking great.  The family life has been good for them. Reply

I hope God favors them and they can send the PC males packing for good!

Not a fan of the pc boys? Nature will decide

 I don't wish them any harm or trouble.  They are two strong and healthy males doing what males do.  I don't want them to kill any of my favorites though. Reply

Sightings like this are very rare, to see a father playing like this with his cubs. Reply

I can’t find that original.  I’d love to see it myself. Reply

I found it.  They also have footage of the Mhangeni and the OM Cub.  They’re all looking well.  I recorded the footage but I don’t know how to load videos here to share Reply
