2/2 Gijima males near Kruger Gate, I'm not sure if this is the time they were in the same place as Nkuhuma Male and Talamati Male or is it a new sighting

I don't know that they are any less popular, in fact I believe they are a highly respected and admired coalition, on this board, though I cannot speak of elsewhere. At issue, I believe, is that we do not get regular updates on them, like some of the others, though we get more updates on them than, say, some lions in KNP.

They are certainly up there with the PCMs, Ndzhengas and Mantimahles in popularity, but as everyone mentioned above, southern SS doesn't get as much regular updates as the rest of the reserve, especially the central and northern sectors.
LM Gijima, the photographer mentions his ‘calm presence’ which may be true around his prides, but aside from that this guy is a menace. Most reckless guy in Sabi Sands for sure, but he’s still alive and thriving for what it’s worth.
