Lions of Sabi Sands

[Mapokser]

@Tr1x24 Do we have photos of this female side by side with Nhenha and OM? I'd imagine they'd look bigger than the BDM does, they were definitely big males.

But anyway being small or big is just how it is, some are small, some are big, and most are average.

The 2 Shishangeni you speak about are the ones who fought 2-3 of their sons? There're so many Shishangenis and Gomondwanes I can never keep track of who is who.

But as for Nhenha, yeah he's a good example, he was even older ( though still in amazing shape ) and very willing to compete. but still he wasn't anywhere near as bold as Imbali, nor did he show as much strength, which speaks a lot about the S8 male.

Nhenha had the numbers to take over the Tumbela territory ( and had trouble doing so initially ), the "craziest" thing he did was fighting Tumbela alone once, though he lost. He tried chasing PCM in their first territorial clash but it didn't work, at the time many thought his coalition was stronger than PCM since it had the very experient but still in top condition Nhenha and the prime NK against younger PCM, but in the end they were no match.

Imbali however ousted DM, was challenging territorial Mohawk who is apparently slightly younger than him, is now chasing nomadic Mohawk and his sons around, chased 2 territorial BDM a while ago and now apparently defeated the bigger BDM in a fight and stole his female.

Very few lions would show as much strength as Imbali is showing right now, we should give him all the merit for doing what very few would, although I'm worried he will meet his doom doing this. Reply
