Wonkey Eye was already nomad in early 2020 in northern Sabi Sands, prob at the age of 2 - 2.5 yrs.

For what we know, S8 become pride male of Imbali pride in ~mid 2019.

Until that, Imbali pride males where Mluwati males, whos sons ( 3 on H1-2 and 2 in H10) are not that much older then Wonkey Eye (assuming WE was born around early 2018, while Imbalis thru 2017).

Wonkey Eyes origins is quite a mystery, he might look young, but he is over 6 yrs old now, while 2 S8 sons, his partners are 4.5, prob not yet 5.

Possibly he comes from some smaller pride who S8 controled, or mated with before he come to Imbali pride.

As S8 was seen in 2017 with older Mbiri north of Mluwati Concession, around Talamati Bushveld camp, its possibly they where territorial there. Reply
