RIP to this S26 king, this was So unfortunate.
S26 males are now down to 2, they used to be a powerful coalition of 4 lead by the legendary Long Mane Styx. He died in 2020 I believe, and now this boy has also died.
Judging by the area he was seen, it is likely that old LubyeLubye and his 3 younger partners are the culprits, as they were also seen nearby.
Heres my summary of what I think happened: the culprits likely caught this S26 male alone and brutally injured him. His brothers later came to rescue him which explains their injuries. However, it was too late and after some more fighting, the culprits declared their victory and left. The 2 S26 remained near the their brother as he died.
Whats next for their Mpondo pride is uncertain. The 2 remaing S26 are still not that old, but if aforementioned old LubyeLubye and his partners spot the weakness, they can takeover Mpondo pride, as S26 will be outnumbered easily. Assuming if this happens, Mpondo young males will be chased out or killed. Fingers crossed that they can hold on the Mpondo pride for longer.
