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.

First litter of that pride from that generation was introduced into pride in February 2019 and last litter in May 2019, so they are rather born January-April 2019.

Three huge male lions for sure...









" The mighty, MASSIVE Gomondwane male lions need no introduction. Splitnose, Tank and Blondie has been ruling the Vurhami and Hippo pools lion prides in the south for years now. Success is their story, and they keep brining success to the southern Kruger.

With so many male lions around them in the southern kruger, they have held their ground, and continue to do so. These days, they spend most of their time in the Hippo pools area, which is why they are seldom seen roaming in the kruger. Last year in the winter months, they were extremely active around the Vurhami pride, hence the many sightings of them all over the southern kruger. I for one thought it would be the same, but they are simply not to be found.

I have personally spent nearly 4 weeks now looking for these male lions, to film them, but more importantly, to see if they are ok. Blondie and Splitnose were seen on tow night drives on different days, so we know they are alive and healthy. But where is tank? Why is the far south so quiet?

Is it the silence before the storm? Time will tell, as i continue to search for the Kruger's biggest male lions, the Gomondwane males.

Do enjoy this video, of these mighty male lions! Wink

Wow! How much i've been looking for him lately! What a shame we don't hear so much about these 3 other Gomondwane brothers next to the Blondie, Splitnose and Tank's trio... Whether what's the reason for this? Are they hanging out around a far less well-known area? 
Btw thank you very much!

The darkest Young Jock/Berg En Dal male on the move back in April 2023.

Unfortunately, he has been missing for almost 2 months now as his 2 brothers (tall one and shorter mane one) were seen in several occasions, first with injuries and then, they were seen recovered and avoiding the 2 Hippo Pools males. Who fought the Young Jock or what happened to them is still a mistery and remains unclear. Fortunately the other 2 brothers are still in good shape despite the wounds they got in the beginning of September.
