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.

Hope these guys stay safe and we dont witness another "Vurhami case", as they already lost 3 brothers in nomadic life..

Video says 3 young Mazithi males and 1 older unknown male, any idea who the older male is, and when they might have joined up with him? The Trichard males are all huge, and in great shape, not sure who gave the young maneless Mazithi those bite marks on his back, but I somehow doubt it was the 5 Trichards. I couldn't agree more, if they meet up with the Trichards, there is no way that ends well for the youngsters.

@Tr1x24 So these 3 youngsters are the younger brothers of the 6 Mazithi/Tshokwane males ( now also 3) . They seem to have an old guy join them at least for half a year or maybe longer. Graeme Mitchley posted pictures of them few months back. Here’s one of all of them and the older male solo

Do you mean the 3 younger halft brothers to Mantimahles and older brothers to 2 Mazithi/Lubyelubye males??

Also, what have been thinking, maybe these 3 where originaly with the older ones, as older ones where seen as 6 last year???

@Tr1x24 yes and no. There’s controversy if they are sons of Old mazithi or they just took over from them. As some people have found photos of them with their dad (who they partnered with) who’s isn’t old mazithi and some people claim that guy is 1/2 old mazithi. But there’s sightings of old mazithi as nomads and one coming back to pride later and stuff. And also the 3 new mazithi brutally killed smudge and Darkmanes brothers. But the evidence seen points more towards them not being but who knows. I don’t think these are from the 6 because they lost numbers gradually and these seem younger. But I remember asking big on wild, he said he has seen them all since they were cubs and regularly sees this pride and asked him about the muntshe confusion and he said they are 6 mazithi/Tshokwane males and I said and do they also have those younger brothers on h10 with the older male and he said yeah. So that’s how I have taken it.

Yea i also think that those 3 Mazithi's might took-over from Old Mazithis and not being their sons..

Also, are those 3 still alive, i think they where not seen since 2019, right?

This is big on wild August 2020. But I saw sightings until later in year by other people. This year not sure seen any but they have ruled 5 years already I’m sure they can last longer, they still look good.
