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.

Have they been driven out of the Nkhulu pride already?
They're still quite young. I guess them are around 2 or 3 years old. As well, the Mantimahle males as far I remember. They haven't been spending time with the Nkuhlu pride in ages.
Exactly my point, and why I asked. They do look awfully young, but then again, a couple of the males currently with the white Birmingham male also appear not much older than these boys, which is too say younger than I'd like to see them when they get kicked out of the pride. Thank you my friend!

Probably not because I can see at least 3 females in these pictures.
That, also, was one of the reasons behind my question. I wasn't sure if these were all males, implying a couple of them would be very young to have been kicked out. Thanks for the reply my friend!
You're right my friend, the Birmingham subadults males doesn't look like much older than these boys and they are being chased off by the Ross males.
Sadly, the Mantimahle males weren't seen with this particular pride in months (As far I know). Hopefully, we hear more of this pride with the Mantimahle males soon.
