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.

Who said that? I think you maybe mistaken him for Talamati Matimbas son..
Not in this forum but somewhere a couple of months ago I read that the Selati sons “may be dead”. I think people assume that though whenever anyone goes missing in Kruger.

Often the people make forward without asking or researching and make assumptions. Which is not so serious but it misinforms at a certain point

Great photos Titose.
Were the Ngotso males introduced from Kgalagadi? The first Image the sand and grass as well at first glance look like the Kgalagadi ecosystem or perhaps the Balule area (of KNP) has that kind of similarities
I don't really have any information if these males were transferred from another reserve, but it's very likely!
Personally, I doubt it. The Kruger ecosystem already has a viable and genetically diverse lion population. It would be pretty redundant of them and a waste of time, energy and resources to translocate lions from hundreds of kilometres away just to add to an already strong population, even more so if it's mostly for aesthetic reasons.
