Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

As far as I know no, didn't see video of Nhenha roaring since N'ws invade, neither that Londolozi or MalaMala mentioned it, while it was reported few times that N. Avocas are returning roars to N'ws, it was mentioned even today on newest video on MalaMala instagram of OE on airstrip :

Looks like Nhenha is keeping low profile for now in that "neutral" area in between N'ws and N. Avocas.

I am little confused about age of nhenha. 
In mala mala monthly report, they are saying that he is 10 yrs and 4 months old. I stillstill remember when tinyo was alive in September last yr. , they use to write that older gowrie ( tinyo) is 10 yrs 10 months old and younger gowrie ( nhenha) is 9yrs 10 mnths old. 
But on fb pages, people are writing that nhenha is 12 around. 
What I hahave learned in this thread that nhenha was born in somewhere November 2010, so he must be 11.
Only Nsuvu was a bit older, July 2010.
What's the truth???

In cases in which Mala Mala does not know age of the lions on their property, they just put their own estimations and such is the case with Birminghams. Estimations Mala Mala made on Birminghams were definitelly incorrect through.

Some people (I do not get why) likes to makes some legends around ages of male lions. Same it was with HB Matimba when when people were making some claims he is 15, 16 or 17 years old.

The exact dates of Birminghams birth are unknown and can only be estimated. I believe it is reasonable to think Nhenha was around 4 to 4 and half years old when Birminghams took over from Matimbas judging by his look by then so he should be around 11 years old now.

Nhenha in Sabi Sabi

"The last of the Birmingham coalition has snuck onto Sabi Sabi. Male lions often enter a second nomadic phase after they become too old to hold their previous territory"

This thread probably isnt done until Nhenas death, and after which it will be flooded with trubute videos. Lol

Indeed it did. Much like the coalition in question. The BBoys are one of the more successful coalitions (in SS) in recent memory.

Nhenha. The author also mentions " he had lot of boys with him", I presume he has sons with him. Dunno where is the NK male, though
