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.

SHISHANGENI MALE LIONS•
____________________________________________________________

What a morning spent here in the Kruger National Park. Entering Crocodile Bridge as the sun was rising. All of sudden we came across two male Lions. They were completely flat but we waited patiently and it paid off. They started moving, and were heading straight in the direction of 4 younger male Lions, most likely intruders to the Shishangeni coalitions territory. The sight of two fully grown, powerful and experienced males sent the younger four on their way and that they did quickly. A truly natural spectacle that the Kruger and lowveld are blessed with.

One of the young males of the Vurhami coalition, this particular young male has been renamed "MO" by Danielle Sheedy who has seen his progressive growth over the years!

Interesting. Can't think who they would be. Not too familiar on coalitions of young males in that area. Doubt it would be the Vurhamis as they are quite far west of their fathers now. Good to see the Shishangenis are still able to send younger intruders running though.

1 of the 3 Mjejane Male Lions with the wind blowing through his mane.

A very proud male overlooking his territory.

Seyms Brugger: " Last Light 》⁣

As darkness settles across Thornybush Game Reserve, one of the dominant Male Lions wakes up from his slumber to get ready for the nights patrol.⁣
Here, a spotlight from the game vehicle is used to illuminate his face against the already dark background.⁣ "

    Update on young Vurhami males!

It has been confirmed that 4 of the 6 vurhamis are dead. Killed by the three Mjejane males. Only two remain and they have left Mjejane reserve and current whereabouts is unknown. The once mighty young six we watched grow destined to rule the south of Kruger . RIP Young warriors.

So 1 more was killed? 2 males disapeared before, after 1 was killed in that video only 3 where still in that area...

Any source of this information, its kinda unbelievable that 4 where killed by Mjejanes..

Hi my friend,this was confirmed by Stefanie Botha who works in Mjejane Game Reserve.
I believe that her is a very reliable source.
