Jackson, check out post #574 in the Majingilane thread, I answered that question and I put some pics of their sons. Reply

One of the young Talamati males was seen hanging around with the Mhangeni Pride/Tsalala Breakaway Pride lionesses. Interesting pride dynamics unfolding in the Sabi Sand!

Dear friends, i found this photo in the Mala Mala Game Reserve gallery on FB. The photo author (Dick Zwart) write: 

"We met this king during his morning stroll in Mala Mala december 1998"

In your opinion, is possible that could be one of the West Street males?

It could very well be one of them. I know they started their dominance around that year. Also, it could be one of the former dominant males. Reply

Thanks Majingilane for your opinion. I don't think that there are many good photos of these males. Reply

I'm sorry @Majingilane for the late reply. I hope that his brother is well and soon we will have news of him. Reply

Oh don't be.

I saw the update in facebook just some minutes later, it was just one of those long days where you barely have time to check it out. Reply
