The white male and female from the Birmingham pride - Just posting separate pics - The whole Pride is there,including Ross males 11-28-20 Sunset Drive
Here's the video of the pictures you posted. I thought that was BYM in that line, in the third picture down, but couldn't tell for sure until I saw the video in which you can see his limp. His head is enormous, it is almost twice the size of those lionesses heads. The lioness shown at the beginning of the video is absolutely huge as well, she is a lot bigger than the other lionesses walking near her. Birmingham pride sure does grown some big ones.
Thank you for sharing such a great video. I'll watch it right now. The BYM (Osindile) has grown into a massive and bulky young male. Let's hope he will start to wander alone once for all. Some of the Birmingham females will be in estrus and the Ross males will become even more aggressive with BYM. Some interesting times ahead on Ngala
The obvious limp seen in that video is still very concerning for BYM will have a very difficult time hunting or defending himself if he were to leave. I had thought it had gotten a bit better, in fact we've seen some videos where his gate isn't as severe. But, this video shows it can still be very problematic for him, and that doesn't bode well for his future prospects imo. I truly hope I'm wrong, but I am, again, unsure if he can actually survive alone.
