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.

From te look of it, it looks like 2 Shishangenis are challenging Gomondwanes, which is crazy, more so that they are around 11-12 years old lol.

Usually there are 3 down there, 2 further north/east with other pride , but 4th came in as reinforcement after the Shishangenis chase them , 5th (male with blind eye) is prob with another pride.

Phabeni male!

Impressive capture of one of the four Phabeni males seen this morning. Phabeni males are three younger males in their prime who have partnered with the famous Fourways Blondie. These boys have taken significant territory from the Nyamundwa dam on S1, to Phabeni and now also Pretoriuskop area. They have caused some chaos as previous males such as the Pretoriuskop male with his 5 sons have been made nomadic from the pressure of the Phabeni males. 

Recently this Phabeni male pictured here has been seen staying with the Shitlhave Pride which they have sired with recently as new cubs have been seen.

If she’s that old then she is probably a daughter of Stompie/1eye

Yes, I just received a confirmation that she's also a sister of the Majingilane males, so that makes her 15 years old.

@Tr1x24 judging by this post Shishangeni should be 13/14 Years old.
"-2 Shishangeni boys- 
#Throwback to September 2012 with the 2 of the 4 males who would become legends, dominated a huge area southeast of Kruger and would be super successful males in terms of leaving a great legacy!
note: these young males had been expelled by their parents a few months before these photos were taken.
