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.

The Matimba males should, in theory, be the fathers. At least I don't think the Matshapiri males mated with these lionesses.

News from leopard hills: dark mane is losing his cool with the growing of the othawa boy. He is trying to kicking him out of the pride. With the age advancing of majingilane they are much more not tolerate other males around even their own brothers. Scar nose is each more living alonewith kambulas and dm with othawas and 3t with mhangeni. A better world is a world full of females with me as the only one man.

It isn't like that.

They're spending much more time apart because they have expanded their territory, not because they can't stand each other.

Kicking out a young male is one thing, and they have done it already plenty enough with all their sons.

But as they grow old, their bond becomes stronger, not the other way around.

Cause in the past the majingilanes expanded together. Now we can see that they are usually doing it alone. Looks like scar nose started to stay alone in the east after a huge fight against 3 tooth. 3 tooth appeared with his back full of bites and looks like it was made by scar nose according to rob.

Last week the three were together man, come on.

And, if there's a brothers fight, they don't attack their backs, they fight face to face.

Scar nose's just being opportunistic like any lion, he has this chance of getting the girls for himself, and he's taking it, while the other two make rounds between being there in MalaMala and looking after their other prides.

It's a lot of territory to take care of, and they need to be spread, otherwise it's impossible.

Rough locations of Majingilane members sightings according to MalaMala posts from 25th july( AT spotted center of the malamala-KNP boundary) to 30th Oct( SN spotted few 100ms from Sibuye Drive). 

AT = All three spotted
GM @ 22.9/sept near Ostrich Koppies

The leopard hills locations(not complete) is according to their photos posted(couldn't get a detailed location). The dates dated in leopard hills is according to the date of the photo posted by leopards hills social media, so might not be accurate to the date.

The Mala Mala locations should be accurate though.

That would be beautiful. I wish that too. I wonder where the ximhungwe male is located now.. ?
Is anyone aware of the last sighting of him? If so, please do share. Thanks, peace, love.

The Majingilane male has been putting a lot of pressure on the young Othawa male, even giving him a couple of slaps.

As far as I have read, the Ximhungwe male was already a nomad by the time his sisters came back to the sabi sands, he is probably around the peripheries of sabi sands but not within sabi sands. He would probably already have a partner by the time the ottawa male is out on his own.

There is no mention of the ximhungwe male on ss or manyeleti. He could be on kruger or even dead.
