There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. 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.

A breathtaking sighting of two of the four Kambula males in a territorial patrol in the Northern Sabi Sands. Especially the male in the front is a spitting image of the Birmingham male Nhenha, one of his fathers.

There is no denying who he resembles, but in this image particularly, the likeness to Nhenha is uncanny, the spitting image.

Although all of them have similarity with both Bboys and Majingas genes, i think only K6 looks to have stronger Majingas gene.

When you look at K3, K4 and K5, you can immidiately tell these guys are strong Bboys gene. They have those stocky and muscular body builds, with hairy, "bear" like manes over shoulders, in more "light" tone.

While when you look at K6, he is different. He has different mane style, not hairy, but regal/majestic type (although not fully grown yet), with dark tones, and his body type is more lean, like majingilanes had.

When you look at him, without knowing, nobody would taught that he is Bboys son, he is classic Majingilane.

Also, when i look at him, he reminds me of Othawa male and Junior Othawa, idk why.

He also might fall on Nhenha or Nsuku. They were the more regal pretty males. Even though K3 and K4 have great resemblance to Nhenha, they don't look as pretty. For eg, the Torchwood Male is a very regal male and he takes after Nhenha as well.

There was an image of Nhenha, back when he was partnered with Nkuhuma, that I seem unable to find now. But it very closely resembled to the image @T I N O shared, and the two males look almost identical. I have hoped since the beginning, for the success of the K4s, perhaps due to nostalgia for who their fathers were, and really hope we are now witnessing the beginning of their own legacies.

This is the way.  All 4 need to stay here, stand up to the PCM's, and raise cubs right here.  WE know they won't, but it would be nice if they tried.

This male lion is always the one with the other male lion. I always wonder where is his brother. Even when they mention he is around it is always this male lion and the unrelated male lion. This male lion looks a bit like Kinky tail and Nusuku?

His brother was pictured with him earlier this month, but usually he is not in the camera frame likely for being into the thickets. 
For me he resembles Scar Nose Majingilane in a few pictures, but mostly Tinyo.

I am looking at this male lion and he reminded me of Dreadlocks a little bit. His mane looks similar to Dreadlocks a bit on his face, but Kinky Tail use to look similar just different sizes. Mane similar to Dreadlocks and face, but Nusuku Birmingham is who he looks like the most?
