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.
"During one game drive, we found four lions, consisting of three very large males (larger than I have ever seen) and one female, which have broken away from the Kambula pride."

Is he referring to the N'was, or the subs? If the N'was, I believe that might be the first time I have heard anyone refer to them as exceptionally large, especially since the photographer has spent quite a bit of time photographing lions in the Mara. The N'was may be bigger than I thought.

The recent video of Nhena that was posted, the one showing him walk in front of the truck, was a great example of how truly massive he is. Those boys come from great genes for sure.

Yeah I was thinking the same. I hope they can get through the next 8-12 months as four and with the genetics of Tinyo or Nhena they will be a real force.

Don't forget the Kambula genetics, those are some impressive lionesses. BBoys + Kambula Pride = Kambula Boys.
This is the youngest lioness, from the 2019 litter, no? She's almost exactly the same age as the Tsalala lioness. Considering their locations in Sabi Sands, if she doesn't get accepted back into either the Kambula Pride or the as yet unnamed breakaway pride, that would be a much more likely pairing than say, the Othawa subs and Tsalala.
