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.

Extreme aggression between a mating pair of lion at Singita Sabi Sand
*This image is copyright of its original author
So, #3 / Tinyo, is mating with a Mangheni lioness in Singita, that is, Majingilane controlled land.
He needs to tread carefully, because the Majingilane won't like it a single bit and, as old as their faces might look like, they're still powerful and can shred him to pieces should they catch him alone.
Looking forward to how this is going to develop from now on.
I hope this it will be the beginning of a new era...and of course a new dinasty.But still Tinyo has to be careful.So anxious to see what will happen.Mangheni females(with Mapogos blood trough veins) and the BBoys perfect matches.

No this is not perfect, because if tinyo follows the magheni female into majingilane territory, the majingilanes will kill him for sure so it is a very dangerous move of tinyo.

A Birmingham male lion looks on in the direction he is intending on moving. A spotlight cast a shadow on one side of his face, while perfectly illuminating his eye and part of his mane, creating quite a mysterious feel about this image. Feeding off the black and white feature recently posted, this image tends to work better without colour as it enhances the feeling of unknown.

A very full Birmingham male lion pants heavily as he digests the meal he has just eaten. Three male lions and four lionesses were fighting over the remains of a waterbuck kill when we arrived. The sounds coming from these animals as they fought amongst themselves was incredible. One can see the scars on the nose and below the eye of this male from this and previous aggressive interactions.

Better known as Tinyo
That’s not Tinyo, it’s probably mfumo
The lower one is Tinyo..broken lower right canine. Mfumo has a scar under his right eye
With the 3 Avoca young males now coming to Nkorho from the north, I want to point out some things I've been thinking about.
To me, this is the same that happened 8 years ago with the Majingilane and Matimbas(who then were 6).
The Majingilane simply became interested in the south and center SS, and now the Birmingham males are doing the same. The Matimbas then took advantage of it and moved down and now the 3 Avoca lads are just taking what's there for the taking, since the Birmingham males don't seem to care about it that much.
Keep it in mind, because several years from now there might be the classic "they were driven from the north" like it was done with the Majingilane.
Also, the Sabi sands and its lions seem to follow the same general pattern all over again, as the years pass, which seems interesting to me.

Saw two of the BIRMINGHAM Male lions resting before they got up to drink and then gave us a roar before laying back down again. Photo of BIRMINGHAMS TINYO (left) and NSUKU (right) by Chebe Wales-Baillie.
