The Matimba coalition

[Tshokwane]

Quote:Any word on the whereabouts of the S. Marimbas since the last run in with the Majingilane?

Here is the answer, from The week in Pictures #224:
The blonde-maned Matimba male’s previously gashed forehead is healing well after February’s battles. Despite temporarily splitting from each other, the Matimba coalition survived another altercation with the Majingilane, who moved back west with injuries to two of the three.

During the coalition’s time apart, the dark maned Matimba male rests in a thicket to escape the wind. The two have since reunited and have killed and fed on a young buffalo together.

And these are the two lovely cubs of the Matimba males with the Tsalala lionesses.
