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.

So this old guy decided to abandon his territory after his son went missing, great to see him mating again.

He was recently seen with 3 other males, a Hippo Pools boy and 2 S28 males, any news on them?

Good looking male! This S79 male resemblances a lot to the dominant Mantimahle male.

Glad to hear about these magnificent boys. I didn't seen anything about the Leeubron males in ages. They're the biggest lions around Kruger at the moment. Specially the one in front. He is such a massive beast.

One of the two remaining Shishangaan males
Caption: by Rudi Hulshof: This is one of 2 remaining original Shish Males who were the paternal coalition of 5 who fathered the well known White Male Lion, often called #casper  
Well past their prime, aged between 14 and 15 years old, these 2 are still dominant over a large productive territory with a number of prides present. Certainly true legends of Africa.

Blondie Fourways, what a legend, if im not mistaken, he is currently oldest of remaining "known" males in Kruger, assumed to be born around 2009.


Could you help jog my memory?  I always forget which was which.  Was Blondie the Majingi son?  If not, who is speculated to be his father?  I also forget the origins of the Phabeni males.

@DE_66 Phabenis are unknown origin, Blondie is unknown also, there's people who say Majingilane but they weren't around when he was born, mapogos and Girjima males were but nobody knows who his father is anyway.
