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.

Description says it is the S21 Males, who were apparently thought to have died. They were seen in the area of the S26 and H5, apparently near where the S26 Males died not too long ago. @"Brahimlegend" can you confirm this? I know some of his videos have had elaborate titles in the past, just wondering what the story is behind these males.

Someone on FB commented on the darting video that they removed a snare on the Pretoriuskop male as well. Not sure who she is or anything like that but seemed to know something. Either way theyre all fine which is good. Thanks for the updates my friend!

Yeah it is them. I saw the guy who runs that youtube in my group on Facebook I told him they are s21 males and hadn't been seen in a while. But they were seen before @Tr1x24 posted them couple months back I think and my friend has seen them lately mating with H5 pride.

Their story origin is unknown. They ruled the s79 nwathimiri pride couple years ago for a while had some sons. Least 2 we know of. Same ones @widmerk posted recently. They lost the pride to to 3 s79 males and then we didn't see them for a long time. There was pics of one of them here and there but nothing really showed what happaned to them. And then few months back they pooped up around h5 area. They could have been the males who got old lubyelubye and possibly something to do with s26 males but it's hard to know.

@Robot00  5 were seen together recently, but usually we only see 2-4 of them together.

@Tr1x24 So the oldest haven't turned 5 yet, therefore, in that video* from a year ago they hadn't even turned 4 but some had full manes already. Scar also developed his mane very quickly, but many males ( probably most ) still have mohawks when they turn 5.

*video in question





Impressive manes and size for males below 4yo.

Maybe 1 or 2 months ago we also saw 5 together in a video. Perhaps one split or is missing, but it's hard to say since we don't see them so regularly... Someone could also try and check ID of the males seen today and compare with the 5 we saw last time, to see if the one missing last time is among the 5 seen today.
