"Two male lions close to Phalaborwa gate this afternoon. What is interesting about these two male lions is that they are not the dominant males of the area and that they are the Mingerhout coalition from Letaba that is quite a distance from where they find themselves. The smaller of the two males was limping maybe from a fight with the two dominant males of the area the Masorini coalition who was spotted early the morning close to the two Mingerhout males."

More on what "titose" posted.
Two of the Three Mingerhout males seen yesterday near Phalaborwa gate. These guys are far off from their territory, they are usually dominant far east near Letaba. They were close to another coalition in this sighting, the dominant males of this area ( Two Masorini males). The smaller Mingerhout male was limping possibly from this encounter. Pictures of Mingerhout males below.

5 Gomondwanes seen together on s137, which is quite north for them, and area od 2 Tshokwane males, who might be in danger if Gomondwanes decide to push north :
Back to 2011 with the ferocious one-eyed male of the legendary of old Gomondwane male coalition, this photo was taken at the dam wall of the Gezantfombi Dam just outside the H4- 2. Crocodile bridge area!

Wow! What a morning drive!! It was all about rhe lions!! We started off with the lone Mjejane Female that walked right past our vehicle and we ended off with “Mo” the male lion that has managed to evade the dominant 3 Mjejane Males for quite some time now, however he still sticks around in their territory. He gave us the run around but we eventually got him beautifully in an open clearing. He kept on looking at the river and he was quite nervous, so maybe the Mjejane Males are on their way back again… time will tell…
