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.

S. Shishangeni and EBM where seen around Afsaal and south Jock Concession for quite some time now, with Mpondos moving back further north, its expected that those 2 move further into Jock Concession.

Mpondo males have been on s65 since at least October and big boy and his son have been seen since around S1. But big boy have not seen anything on him since 17th November, only his son. Hopefully he’s seen soon
Rain or shine, life must go on for the animals of the Kruger National Park. We were so lucky to see the Shishangeni males on patrol in the rain yesterday evening, just before many Kruger roads were closed due to the high rainfall resulting from Cyclone Eloise. Look closely and you will notice this legend of a male is sporting a fresh gash on his forehead... Thanks Life is Sheedy for the heads up

Another side on image of this magnificent Shishangeni male patrolling in the rain, one can really appreciate his well developed and very dark mane!
A blast from the past! In the 2014 with a young male lion on S28 near the Crocodile Bridge, this young male would be known a few years later as the South Shishangeni male.

I dont understand your question.
If you think of Blondie and DM Fourways, then no, they are earlier generation of Fourways males, born in 2010, this 2 Fourways with Torchwood male are born in late 2015, those 3 are together.

Apparently this are not his sons, his sons/offspring are rumored to be somewhere on H1-1/H3 junction..
Also, i've seen on Facebook rumors that unrelated/unknown male Blondie Fourways is 1 of the 2 original Torchwood young males, 1 of the males who came with 4 original Torchwood lionesses in Nkorho/Torchwood area in mid 2012 :

When i think about it, it make sense, as Blondie joined Fourways pride somewhere in 2013, exactly at the time when S. Matimbas where starting to hang with 4 Torchwood lionesses and 2 young males got chased/disapeared..
Also his age fits as this 2 are born around late 2009/early 2010, also Torchwood and Fourways prides are fairly close to each others/neighboring prides.
If thats true, that means that history reapeted itself, as Torchwood male sired by Matimbas also joined Fourways pride and made a coalition with their 2 males..

I meant that both times a young male from Torchwood pride joined Fourways pride and form a coalition with their young males.
2013 Blondie joined Dark Mane and his brother (sired by Majingilanes) , and 2018 Hairy Belly /Smudge Nose (sired by S. Matimbas) joined 2 Fourways males (sired by Matshapiris).
If thats the case Blondie Fourways is the brother of Smudge Nose Torchwood lioness, idk from where they came, but it is rumor that they breakeaway from Nkuhumas..
What a mighty coalition!
On the H6 a coalition of 7 youngnsters male lions, possibly these are the ones from the southern pride in Singita.
