There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

They obiviously separated soon after, Lubyelubye went east towards Lubyelubye pride which he took over, while Smudge west towards Sabi Sands. 

Not sure where Mohawk Matshapiri comes in the picture, but there where 3 young males in the pride, 1 was significantly younger :

They are all sired by legendary Old Nkuhlu/Nwatimhiri males :

Some people taught that Old Lubyelubye is one of this males, but he is not, he is their son.

They also sired Wide-Nose/Ubuso Ndhzenga, who was prob born as Old Lubyelubye and Matshapiri left the pride, or was just small cub then.
