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 group went into Kruger with 4 lions.
Jr, Gingerella and 2 smaller unnamed younger male lions.
A while later Gingerella and one of those younger males returned to the western sector. Where that male lion disappeared.soon afterwards.
Gingerella currently is still nomadic in western sector.
Jr and one of his brothers are currently likely somewhere in Kruger as a coalition of 2. The third male that returned with Gingerella is likely death, as he disapeared in a well covered area, known to be occupied by rival lions. And likely would have sticked with Gingerella if alive.
I dont think any sightings of Jr were good enough to conclude his partner died.
Well, thats just speculations, lions (especially nomads) missing doesnt mean they are dead, we actually dont know, Kruger is big.
Good examples is Long Mane Styx male, he was not seen for 3 yrs in Kruger, Talamati DeLaporte also was not seen for 2-3 yrs, Skorro Thanda Impi was missing for almost 2 yrs and then he emerged in late 2019, and he was just near by Manyeleti, current s79 (Mazithi) males where not seen for 5 yrs, etc.
