Throwback, Sand River pride at Kirkmans Kamp, not sure about exact date, but Mantimahle offspring subadults (5 young males and 3 females) where still with the pride, so prob around mid 2019, before they got chased out by S Avocas :

Old Sand River female was also still alive, she was estimated to be 15+ yrs old at this time (right female), but died shortly after:

After they got ousted by S. Avocas, only 2 sub males and 2 females managed to survive (for what we know) , 2 females eventually managed to return to the pride, and 2 males went nomadic, hanging around southern Sabi Sands and Skukuza, last seen around early 2021, apperantly 1 was seen with back injuries in Kruger in late 2021, they are known as 2 Sand River young males.
