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.

They used to be called as Mazithi males in their younger days. But since they've established with the LubyeLubye pride they got the name Lubyelubye pride males. Which is pretty good to avoid confusion with the current and many Mazithi males around, lol.

That makes more sense. Thanks for clearing that up for me.

That makes it more confusing, the next generation of LubyeLubye young males will probably be called LubyeLubye males and we'll all be confused again. Coalitions should be named after their natal prides and pride males should never take a pride's name, they can have control over more than one pride at a time which is why it doesn't make sense.

The next generation will probably be called basing in the area that they will be seen. Like Mantimahle males, Tshokwane males, Trichardt males among others. Only time will tell. Anyway, these two are known as Smudge (the blond-maned) and his brother is often referred as dark-maned, so. This is another way of call them

That's not the case 9/10 times though, it's usually the natal pride's name and they base it on the area if it's an unknown coalition in a new area.

Didn't these 2 oust old LubyeLubye male and also forced out his son who later formed a coalition with his father?

Satara males

For me this 'Caramel Colored' Lion must be THE MOST BEAUTIFUL LION currently in Kruger National Park?
Watch him and three of his Coalition Brothers filmed on the H6 between Singita and the H1-3.
They are part of a the Coalition of 7 males around the H6 south of Satara Rest-camp.
Yes, a Coalition of SEVEN! They are the Pride Males of the Southern Pride of Kruger National Park.
Who do YOU think is the most beautiful - Casper or Caramel?
I agree there are very beautiful black mane Lions in Kruger but...Casper and Caramel are unique and one of a kind.

These 4 lions consisting of the last Vurhami male lion (Mo) as well as his 3 lionesses had found the largest tree in the area to rest under for the heat of the day. Their midday sleep plans were however quickly ruined as they had to reluctantly make way for a large crash of 6 rhino that had the same idea of resting in the cool shade.
The rhino were not hesitant to stroll in and steal the lions' shade with ease! Vurhami male Mo scent marked the tree in defiance and looked back in disgust, in the end he had no choice and had to leave the tree for the rhino!
