I remember when they first began their trek and expansion onto the Kambula territory almost a year ago, that Sean from Londolozi remarked about “two of them having wonky paws”. Hehe.    His isn’t obvious, I’ve actually only detected it a few times myself

It is strange enough to see an injury like that on any lion, much less two in the same coalition. Odds on that must be astronomical.

Yes, therefore this reinforces in my mine that they could be related.  I don't think Ubuso is necessarily from a different pride as it's not been proven 100%.  Yes, he looks different than the others, but he could be the son of an unrelated male in a coalition, plus a lioness who's related to Gore's mother.....  What are the odds they they have the same wonky turned-out paw and come from different prides?  I think it's less likely (but not inconceivable of course, maybe coincidence? Same type of injury? Not as probable, but maybe.....) Reply
