Perhaps the most impressive son of Birminghams?

If Magingilane did get help by people; Dark mane male lion is who benefited most. Shame if helped by humans naturally it might have been more male lions with cubs not just one male lion. Mapogos may had more cubs, Selaties, male lions of sand River, Cleo and Solo,  I forget what other male lions were around. Dark mane is almost everywhere. Tsalala, Kambula, Styxt, Fourway, Othowas maybe more cubs of scarnose and scar hip or Golden mane.

If I remember correctly that conspiracy theory of Mr T getting darted the night Kinky Tail was killed was dismissed as an old wives' tale cooked up by Mapogo fanboys. The Majingilane males naturally outcompeted the Mapogos, Selatis, Sand River males, etc.

 I am not talking just that or specifically. Dreadlocks did get hunted. I would like to not talk about darted of lions. I do not want to talk about the past, but seeing Dark manes face as if the lion did not get help. I think he may of had help from people. I do remember reading an article how they wanted to move the lions. Dark mane also had brothers. You say they outcompeted lions, luck there was so much luck for Dark mane and Magingilane.

There is not much luck involved if they proactively fight on their terms and don't go all-in if they have no advantage to press. The coalition name reflects that. It's not a coincidence that all 4 dominant Majingilanes died due to age or non fight related injuries.

Extremely rare feat, in and of itself. Given the Magins fighting prowess, even when outnumbered or over powered, lends itself to a high level of intelligence, and ability to strategize through forethought. Once could be chalked up to luck, but when it happens repeatedly, across 4 members of the same coalition, you have to begin looking deeper, there is something else at play. Reply
