Another great shot of the Timbavati male that used to dominate in Thornybush with the Black dam Male and the northern male for some known as Marvin (Monwana pride male). The blood of the Timbavati male doesn't run in any male, but his blood does run in the remaining female 6 years old, of the Blackdam breakaway portion of the pride. He was her father along with her two sisters. Her two daughters now about 3 years old are also thus his granddaughters.
The Timbavati male came into Thornybush from Timbavati whilst still fenced in, Combretum farm area. It was around 2014 and he had a bad limp on his left back leg which was injured in September 2014. He partenered with Black Dam male for a year, but his condition eventually deteriorated so much that he became a loner again around 2016. His death was confirmed to have been from a tick-borne desease, Babeliosis, and not TB and an old injury
