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.

Perhaps they went to a place where theres not many if any public roads

Exactly, there is a lot of these areas in Kruger. But, if anyone could find pics of them, my money would be on our friend @Ahmed Ali. He must be scouring the farthest reach of the web, for the pics he comes up with.

So, Satara/H6 males are named Sonop males (atleast 3-4 who split and moved north):

I think it must have been for almost 1,5 year. As i remember, i asked my question here about their status sometime one year ago at this time - and it was the last time from me - and even then there were no news about them for months at the time...

What a shame for these beautiful guys..they were one of my favourites with their very impressive special manes... Especially, if - as you said - they also became the victims of poaching incidents. And as i think, it simply could be the subject, because 3 (4) big heathy vigorous and powerful males at the beginning of their prime don't/canNOT (just) disappear at the same time, from one moment to the next. So this could just be another tragedy...

1/3 Imbali males. Author says 2 Imbali males chased the 2 Nkuhuma boys. (so it was a mistake by the previous author when say 3 chasing 1)

So it was indeed NKs.

2 NK are trying to carve out western part of Imbalis territory (between Imbalis and Nkhulus), more experience Imbalis will prob not allow that easily.
