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.

Coalitions of Kruger National Park

Sorry if these photos have been shared here already but I couldn't not post them as I'm awestruck by how magnificent the Leeubron males are:

I always heard they were the biggest males on Kruger but holy cow they look huge, seems bigger than the bigger Mbiri male and I'm not sure if even the big Gomondwane male "Tank" can match them.

In fact even looking at the Greater KNP's past it's hard to think about males that looked bigger than them or even matched how impressive they seem to be, there were other huge males in the past like prime HB who looked insane in some vids and pics, and in the few photos and vids of him, "Ximpoko" from Timbavati had a similar body to these Leeubron ( Timbavati even claimed he weighed 283kg with a full stomach and was estimated 253kg empty, though I've seen people contest the validity of the weight here so I'll not affirm it's a fact ), but the only one I'd be confident to say was bigger was the Black Dam Male with his insane height, length and huge head.

Of course it's impossible to properly estimate lions from photos and stuff and I might be completely off, it's really mostly just a fun "game", but I couldn't stop myself from commenting on these males' size when I saw these photos.
