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.

This beautiful pride has spent much time around Hoyo Hoyo Safari Lodge and around the Western Cutline, moving from water source to water source. They managed to pull down an adult male buffalo, yet after more than an hour and a half, they had not managed to kill it. This drew the attention of two large male lions who killed the buffalo and chased the females away.

That Talamati breakeaway is prob 3 females with Imbali male , theres no other Talamati breakeaway as far as I know (there was temporary when N. Avocas came, but females returned to the main pride after 2 Talamati boys left in 2018).

Could be, although they are regularly sighted in Buffelshoek. The September reports says they spent much time around Hoyo Hoyo which isn't too far I guess, 9km

Even less, they said near Hoyo Hoyo and western Cutline, which is basically southeast Manyeleti and northeast Buffelshoek where those females are seen now for months..

I mean if theres another pride in that area, wouldnt Imbali male link with them? And not surpass them and went for Talamatis? 

Maybe if somebody knows someone from those lodges can ask about Talamati breakeaway so we can know for sure.

Very slight resemblance, but nothing crazy like Lubyebye Sr. and DM Majingalane.

He does a bit, especially in the eyes.

There has to be some photo of him before 2019 somewhere.

To me he looks very similar to one of Old Mazithis :

It is impossible to know the origins of any male lion without having pictures of him when young, so we probably will never know who sired Imbali male...

Majingilanes were sired by Robson males if im not wrong?

Either Robson or Old Tshokwane males, maybe both as Dark Mane Majingilane is similar to One Eye Robson male, while Scar Nose and Golden Mane are indentical to one of Old Tshokwane males.. So Majingilanes might not be even brothers.

But yea, its a speculation.

Well said. Unfortunately, We won't never know who sired to the Imbali male. It's a shame, Since would like know who sired him. A true beast of male lion
Regarding Majingilane fathers. Their fathers are still unknown until today. It have been some rumours regarding who could be their fathers. But nothing confirmed so far.

We could find out if we find some photo of him pre 2019, as young male or something, photo might be out there..
