Scarnose and DM were the 2 most dominant males of that coalition I read. I think the Tsalala male favors DM the most compared to the 3 others, and the Othawa Male favors Hip Scar. GM probably fathered Big Boy Mangheni. Since they were a successful coalition, each of the males sired multiple cubs in different prides they controlled. I would say that older Othawa male and Long mane Styx looks very similar and both like Scar Nose Majingilane.

They're looking as his dad DM Avoca, and as his grandfather, the mighty Brutus.

I don't have see many photos of Blondie Avoca with the Talamati pride, But of Dark Mane are a lot of images and of Mohawk some good photos as well. Despite all three have mated with the Talamati females, DM and perhaps Mohawk,These two might be the potentially fathesr of those sub-adults

Did you know - A lions roar can be heard from up to 7km away. Lions roar for several reasons, from advertising territorial ownership and intimidating rivals to locating other members of the pride and assisting in social cohesion.

At first glance he should be the potential father(11-28-2020, 08:11 PM)TinoArmando Wrote:(11-28-2020, 06:53 PM)Tr1x24 Wrote:(11-28-2020, 06:38 PM)TinoArmando Wrote: Well, I think both of them were seen travelling through Manyeleti last year.

That is because Tintswalo didn't do their sofa safari videos back then and Talamati pride didn't apear by then in Djuma so they haven't been on wild life safaris either and in general there were not much updates and pictures of that pride.
The most incredible time spent with the Mhageni Pride and the Othawa Male. Witnessing the tiniest little cub I have ever seen, watching the pride feed off a buffalo kill (as well as watching the extreme strength of the Othawa pulling the buffalo into the shade all by himself), and finally the iconic drinking scenes.
So so special..

Some exciting news!
The Nkuhuma Male is currently on Southeastern Othawa/Robson's with a wildebeest kill and was joined by Hairy Belly, the Matimba Male, this morning. The Nkuhuma Male has a gash under his jaw that is believed to have come from the wildebeest during the hunt. |
