Yeah its probably the young Jocks on the sighting I posted, one of Mjejane should be injured and all 3 on my post seem in great condition

As far I know, only two of the three Mjejane males have been sighted so far. The biggest one was seen mating with one female around Biyamiti, and his brother was licking his wounds inflicted by most likely, the young Jock males

Another great shot of 1/5 Unknown males which are often seen between Kumana and Satara. Such a gorgeous cat.

How old do the males in the middle look? If 2 they could be sons of Charelston

Indeed, if I'm not mistaken, this sighting is from when they had a run with the Gomondwane males. Definitely an old sighting

From what I've seen. All these sub-adults are from different ages. I'll dare to say, between 3.5/3 maybe?

100% sons of Charlestons, prob only Big Boy's as they dont look to be born before 2020. 

This is prob his last offspring.

I saw pictures of them recently on instagram, because of similarity with Big Boy i taught it was Charlestons old photo (cant find it anymore).
