The Mighty Mapogos

[Mapokser]

@Tr1x24 Yes, that was exactly what happened. You say lions are unable to lead others? Contact call and lead them in a certain direction? If this wasn't a thing, coalitions and prides wouldn't exist, they can't magically decide all together where to go, they need at least one member to lead the way for the others to follow, otherwise they'd never be able to stay together and patrol together, one would always go in a different direction because they can't read minds.

And this is literally what rangers reported so idk why you're doubting it is a thing.

Rasta didn't disappeared in Elephant Plains, that happened in July 9, all 5 of them were seen alive and well, roaring together at Leopard Hills 2 days later. There are evidences of him being alive until the very end of the month, PB shows up injured around 27-29 of that month.

At the beginning of the month when Mapogos pushed east the Majingilanes were seen far from them, iirc there's even a report they retreated to Kruger.

After Rasta died and PB was injured the Mapogo incursions ended and after Dreadlocks death at the end november they lacked the strength to challenge the Majingilane, they were fewer and older.

But the western Mapogo had control over the Tsalala pride, Rob says so and there's video evidence of that, they lost Tsalala and Londolozi to the Majingilane. So even if we go by your argument that western Mapogos wouldn't help Mlowathi because it wasn't their territory, well, part of it was. The other Mapogos could very well have been with the Tsalala pride when Mr.T was attacked again at the end of June.

Do you think if Imbali had showed up to chase DM and Talamatis from their kill again, but when when Mohawk was eating with them, Mohawk would be like "good luck bro, I'm sitting this one out"?

They would obviously chase Imbali together. I never claimed split coalitions are fully working coalitions, I'm claiming that if given the opportunity, they will still fight together as long as they still have a bond. Had Mlowathi being smarter they'd have had retreated at the sound of Majingilanes roaring and go contact call other Mapogos west of them. 

Western Mapogos never controlled Styx pride or any female there, still we have footage of them far east teaming up with Mlowathi against them.

Mlowathi had faced other males like Manyeletis, Toulons, and Gijimas who even ousted them from Djuma. The roars never bothered the other 4, "coincidentally" they only went east to fight when Mr.T showed up to summon them ( again, it was literally reported as that ), because this time Mr.T lost his entire territory and had no choice but return west and it clicked with him that the others could help against the Majingilanes, but they lost anyway and had to be content with the west.
