Julius is young, his light mane and body structure tells it right away. but everyone can be unlucky.
Notch the Lion-King of the Mara and His Five Sons1 hr ·Light mane brother of Notch most likely by the same mother but different fathers .They could have been fathered by a coalition of two or more different males hence the difference in look one being black maned and the other dark blonde .He is the father of Notch sons Long and Bob and Beauty the marsh pride female and possibly the other two marsh girls.Killed in June 2005,just when Notch sons were barely a month old .The fact that both may have been fathered by different males will help reduce the inbreeding abit . For the four Notch sons are still fathering current concentrating in the two look out prides and the Roan hill pride with cubs there ranging from a month to 1.5 years almost subs .They seem to have abandoned the Sand river pride far South along the Serengeti border may be because it's far from their core territory and the fact there are two 4 male coalitions they had taken it from and spent most of last year .The all place is full of Notch descendants but eventually their offsprings will move into the Serengeti and surrounding conservancies .Well as it's the males who end causing the inbreeding by take so many prides eventually they may start producing large groups of female offspring rather than the current rate of large groups of males .This will reduce inbreeding as the females don't conquer other prides giving a chance to new males to come in since fathers tend to abandon prides when their daughters become of mating age..PC Cavajo

Notch the Lion-King of the Mara and His Five Sons added 4 new photos.May 10 at 10:45am ·2 of the 5 Notch Rekero boys ,The youngest who also looks like Ron Notch and the Caesar Notch look alike.There is 7 of these males altogether.All sons of Notch and his sons.From 2 different prides,5 born in the Rekero pride,2 called Alex and Ron 2 born in Rongai pride older brothers of Earless Notch of Rongai .Both groups have a sister each also, Notch and son daughters.So all together there was 9 subs who moved in a Notch territory called Olkiombo in 2013 offspring of Notch and sons,7 males ,2 females..Sometimes the group of seven as been referred to as M7. All now aged between 4.2 years to 4.6years.The youngest of the group this male is 4.2 years.There is 4 males other Notch subs and their four sisters who have been kicked out of Olkiombo by their 7 half brothers.There is seven other Notch subs in the area also of almost 2 years now,born in a split of the olkiombo females consisting of 2 females.Below Olkiombo is two more prides and their break aways. Namely Mayafisi pride and Hammerkop pride Each consisting of 5 Notch male subs of 3 years now.There is several other Notch subs in Northern Kereekok a neighboring territory number unknown.There is five Notch sub males in the, Rongai pride namely Earless Notch of 3.6 years ,Yoda Notch and a few others of 2 years .Their fathers the 4 Notch boys are still fathering in 3 prides next to Kereekok -2 Look out prides and the Roan hill pride with cubs and subs of 1 year there.Unknown if their cubs in the Sand river pride along the Seregenti Tanzanian border survived but they would be around almost 1 year by now. A lot of Notch descendants .And the 5 Rekero are taking more prides in the East chasing the two pairs of resident males off and with their two half brothers Alex and Ron 2 now have cubs in Olkiombo though some of the females they have mated are their half sisters from neighboring prides.Thats the other side of the coin with large male coalitions ,they take over so many prides which makes most of their offsprings likely to mate each other.But you could also see it as Notch's success.PC J k

Usually I don't just copy and paste information, but since I know little about this lions, and the people in this page has clearly a lot of knowledge about them I thought it was important. And about it I just want to say it is AMAZING. Such legacy this male built along with his sons.
