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.

Now Nhenha is argued by some to be the largest lion in entire Sabi Sands (which is already group much bigger than group of 5 males) and still guides which worked with Southern Matimbas and Charlestons are claiming that those are yet significantly bigger than Nhenha.
I didn't see anyone saying/claiming that Nhenha is bigger then S. Matimbas or Charlestons, in fact i also think he is not..

Didn't get that impression, they where impressive males, some with bulky and muscular bodies and great manes, but in my opinion i dont think any of them was noticeable above average in size..
If we call Mapogos above average in size, then majority of other coalitions should be called like that also, like Matimbas, Skybeds, Avoca/Giraffes, Selatis, Mantimahles, Mpondos, Shishangenis, Shishangaans etc etc.. All those guys look very big and impressive compared to females..
In fact we dont know and all is just guessing in the end..
