There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Would really doubt it if she would sire cubs with the lion dynamics in the North. She was seen with or near with 1 or 2 Mantimahle Sons last month or 2 weeks ago while the Kambula Males roams down South. With the Mantimahle Sons not really 100% controlling the North I doubt if they could protect the cubs of Tiyelele when they are always with Imbali Pride and Torchwood Pride. Even when Kambula Males did go back North there is a chance they would even kill the cubs of Tiyelele and even with the cubs of Nkuhuma lioness that they mated with as time of them being apart is getting longer. With no one really controlling the Nkuhuma Pride there would really be no stability in the North as much of the Northern Sabi Sands is their territory. As far as the Mantimahle Sons go it seems like they are not really trying on getting the Nkuhuma Pride and just chase the other male lions in the area but if they would get the Nkuhuma Pride they would have a hard time patrolling their territory as their territory would go to Kruger side of Torchwood, some parts of MalaMala, Buffelshoek, Sothern Manyeleti, all the way to Elephant Plains, Arathusa, Simbambili, Chitwa, Djuma, etc.
This would be their territory if they control Torchwood Pride, Imbali Pride, Nkuhuma Pride, and Tiyelele. Do not really know how big their territory in MalaMala or Kruger but they do control the territory of Imbali Pride in Manyeleti. The dot in Arathusa is the farthest they have gotten West when K3 was alone in North with Little Amber.

That is interesting. Only one Kambula male lion has been with Tiyelele Talamatie lioness? It would be good if sons of Mantimahle lions were in the north, but I think you are right the male lions will chase other male lions and leave. It is strange behavior. Kambula male lions are growing.
