Your photo of him in his prime show him no different from the photo I showed from 2 months ago.

I'm "defending" it because it's what I understand as the truth. As already explained, lions with limping and "skinny" disease can barely keep up even when they are dominant males and have females to hunt for them ( Scar, Lambile, Limper, Nkhulus ), Tumbela despite limping and being alone, is fine after 2 years of nomadhood, and from time to time is seen in prime form, which would be impossible if he has the same illness as Nkhulu or his brothers.

We don't know what black spots are, for all I know, you are the one who invented that this is a disease, but there's no scientific or empirical evidence of it. Countless lions have black spots and no signs of illness, even under tremendous stress and harsh nomadic lifestyle for years ( Nkuhuma for example ).

All Kruger lions have TB in a latent state, but Tumbela shows no sign of it in the active form.

His limp is unrelated to disease, unlike Nkhulu and others, he injured his leg permanently, attacked by PCM, it's a documented fact you don't want to accept.

A limping, solo, nomadic lion who was always slender will obviously not always look in top shape, it's just that.

If it turns out he gets ill later, that will be that, but he has no evidence of it as of right now whatsoever.

If you cant see that Tumbela is not healthy lion in this state, then idk what to say to you anymore.

And to everyone who doesnt believe that "black spot" is not related to any disease, Sizananis picture is best evidence:

His hip, at that "black spot" was literally eaten up inside out by something. He died shortly after. Reply
