No, Skukuza is like ~30km from Lower Sabie.

Those looks do resemble the darker maned NK Male.  It could be him, and I'd be interested in knowing more about the lions in that area, whether it's him or not.  Thanks for the photo I haven't seen yet.   He has a sort of longish muzzle, too, like the one above....

Some facts about how the N. Avocas with S. Avocas got together to the northern part of Manyelity, and a tribute to the great DM Avoca.

Mohawk and the Southern Black Dam male on a impala kill they stole from the Djuma hyena clan. Doesn't show it in the video but SBDM was severely limping on his left front leg as he moved toward Mohawk. Inquired as to what may have happened, waiting to hear back.
