The 3 oldest Vurhami young males sired by the 7 Gomondwane males. Seen this morning, a promising coalition if they make it.

Seen this morning, a promising coalition if they make it. Personally, I'd say no. Sure it's been some time since anything on him has come to light, but that doesn't necessarily mean he's dead. Take the S21 males for example, nothing new on them came out for over a year or so and they recently popped back up outta the blue. BYM (Birmingham young male) and TYM (Torchwood young male) moved off somewhere into Kruger a while ago and by all a counts no one to my knowledge at least has written them off. Mo could have very well done the same thing and settled into an area that's rarely traversed by rangers or tourists. There's numerous other animals that have gone from being seen on a fairly regular basis to nothing for some time, I just used those two particular groups as an example.

@"Brahimlegend" Hey Brahim, I saw a comment on FB about the Imbali males now being incontrol of the Fourways pride. Did they oust the Mantimahle sons or was it a mis-ID from the start?
@Tonpa Mantimahle sons rule Torchwood pride now they are seen regulary with them by a friend who works there. Also Graeme Mitchley spent time with them yesterday. He posted a pic of darkmane mantimahle and also a video of them feeding with a Torchwood lioness also attacked her though.
Fourways pride I was told Imbali males were seen with them. Think there was a video previously. But honestly I haven't seen enough to say they rule Fourways pride for sure as that pride is never seen really so who knows.
The Leeupan male, son of the two old Leeupan males. Seen today having a drink on the s130. He may have become solo again as his coalition partner was seen very far away in new territory on h1-3 mating.

1/2 Older Skybed Sons seen on S140 near Talamati camp. Been a while since his brother has been seen hopefully he's alive. His two younger brothers are doing well with a pride on the S39.

Crazy sighting of the 3 young Gomondwanes chasing one of the 7 older ones.
