Such a beautiful lion, he has that Makhulu'esque' nose.

He looks a lot like Uboso ? oh how I miss him

Yes, I agree.  Wonder if he voluntarily went separate ways from the females, or got run off and spooked my more mature males in the area....  He doesn't look too stressed in recent photos, but there's a healthy amount of wariness to his look, as there should be.

He definitely got ran out of the area plus he’s too young to go nomadic and he’s in Kruger I don’t think he’s ever been in Kruger he might be too scared to come back unfortunately but I hope not

He is definitely not too young to go nomadic.  He'll turn 3 in Jan., so in a couple of months.  Lions have gone nomadic much earlier.  The problem with his situation, is that he could use a partner or two at this stage.  Heck, if he had had that around the age of 2, he could have gone nomadic months ago.  

The person, (james_safariadventures) remarked that the young lion 'walks with a lot of confidence even at a young age'....so I wouldn't be surprised if he actually took the initiative and left to go at it on his own.  The problem with sticking to his sisters is that some of them might soon go into heat (plus with 5 of them...they are a magnet for every male surrounding them regardless), and he does not want to be seen with them then, because bigger males with more testosterone will put him at major risk.
