They did something similar as a duo, crazy.

As for Mbiri, things looking good for their legacy, apparently nobody pressuring them as of right now, they'll likely at least raise the current Birmingham cubs ( oldest should be 2yo already ). But the new cubs from any Birmingham Breakaway female they currently have/will have, will need more luck, few males reach 13yo in the same shape the Ross had.

Still, 10 Mayambula cubs, whatever how many Skorro cubs made it, and up to 17 Birmingham cubs in a 8+ year reign would be way more than enough.

Yea, when things will be settled and done, 2 Mbiris will prob go down as most legendary duo ever in Kruger (again, out of what we could observe and know).

They didnt only have longevity and success (like Ross males), but they are also two of the most badass and fierce males we could observe, with "expansive" and "conquering" mindset.

Still remembering the Mbiri Males on and off sightings when we see them both all in good condition and the next sighting they are in a bad condition due to fighting then another sighting that they are back in their good condition and again in bad condition. You would really see on how much they have fought in their life to be a successful pride male and sire so many cubs. Just also on how unique both their faces compared to other lions are Zigzag with a sleepy face and Shaka with that terrifying face.
