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.

In my personal opinion, doesn't looks like the LubyeLubye father. The colour and mane is quite similar to the S26 male ,,The handsomest of the three" who is said to be, one of the most good looking lions around Kruger as per some photographers. And if he isn't one of the S26 males.  There could be that It's the Lubyelubye son.

Ok, I thought there was four S26 as of June 2020, unless one has already passed away?
And one of them is Styx male, right?

Yes, The Styx male with the issue on his jaw passed away in 27th November last year. He was a big male, with a beautiful dark and healthy mane.

Great to see that even with demise of Eastern Bank Males towards the end of 2019, their young offspring still found a way to survive these years in between Mpondos, Mjejanes and Young Jocks.

Sweni pride, part 2 :





Im intrigued to find out who the 3 Sweni pride males are..

So by the looks of it, theres 2 slightly older and 1 a bit younger males, they should be around or close to 6 yrs of age (atleast the older ones). 

Based of that, and location where they are, just northeast of Mluwati Concession, i wonder if you guys think they are 3 Imbali/Mluwati young males??

Picture is from early 2020, when they visited Mluwati Concession, i was looking for them since but without success, only this photo of 1 of the males (i think its 1 of them) at that time in Mluwati Concession :

Obiviously we need more clear photos for whisker ID's, but here are some to compare :
