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.

No, old Avoca/Giraffe males are sired by 3 Old Ross/Giraffe males.
Current Ross males, Tyson and Fabio are sired by different 2 Old Ross males, called "Tyson and Fabio", current Ross males inherit names (and behavior) of their fathers.
So, around 2005 -2010's in Timbavati - Orpen area we had Old Skybeds (fathers of Matimbas and Skybeds), Old Ross/Giraffes (fathers of Old Avoca/Giraffes), Old Ross males (fathers of Ross males), Old Birminghams (fathers of Birmingham males).

I’m gonna be honest I don’t know but I don’t think they’re related to Birmingham prides massive lineage since the mbiri and nharu pride have a bit of an problem with that but it’s no serious yet

Yea they are.
Mapoza (unknown genes from Kruger) and Xikukutsus (Avoca/Giraffe and 3 Old Ross males genes) have no relation to Birmingham pride as far as i know.
As from Monwana pride side, this pride origins from Thornybush, so its prob closer to Black Dam pride genetics wise and Thornybush was fenced from Timbavati not long ago .

Speaking of the Xikukutsus, what's going on with them? I've not heard anything on them since they were a coalition with another male. Was it mapoza?

Yes Mapoza, their stepdad.

Stepdad?
Arent the xikukutsus from the avoca pride? Mapoza took over the avoca pride? I didn't know about that. They're the younger brothers to the five S.S avocas? No?
I thought the xikukutsus were nomadic and joined up with mapoza and formed a coalition. They then took control of a pride but i don't remember that pride's name.
