That's a big assumption. The limping Monwana male who won't survive two weeks on his own and has a very bad leg injury, he was able to join a younger male from the Girraffe pride. DM's injury is no where near as severe and I don't see any reason he won't be able to find a partner. Lions don't make calculations like that, under the right circumstances any nomadic male lion would join another nomadic male, even ones with very severe injuries. Usually when males join up there isn't a pride at stake anyway, by the time they look for a pride the bond is already established. What you said simply wouldn't happen.

That's right, the story of the Monwana male and Giraffe male is very impressive. 
And like you said, DM is in way better condition than Monwana. DM actually survived on his own, and in cases disclosed aggressiveness against other males when necessary.
I rather think like you until prove otherwise by evidence directly from events involving DM.  Reply
