I assume that is K5 with those wounds to his hind quarters? Damage inflicted by his brother, who was really putting some effort into this bites.

The Boys are apparently very busy today.  

Reports of three different mating pairs in the south Manyeleti.   I’m guessing they’re Imbali females based in location.

How many Liones does the Imbali pride have?

I would guess Red Road's daughters coming into their own. It is typical that females will avoid mating with closely related males (fathers, brothers, cousins) which we have seen for example when Tintswalo males rules Mbiri pride. It would make sense if Red Road's daughters would see new young male coalition in the arena as opportunity to come into their own.

Arathusa? Isn't that quite south for a Nharu? Perhaps RR's daughter looking for a male who is not her dad, wandering further south?

I dont think they where filmed at Arathusa.

Also, some say it might be Imbali lioness.

Sparks flying today!

Two Kambulas chase off 1/2 Matinmahle Sons

Initial reports thought it was PCMs but turned out it seems Kambula are becoming more assertive
                   

This is the male they chased

Looks like K3 and K4 to me. Hopefully we get to see some footage. Why do the exciting things always happen on WildEarth on the days that are only for members.
