It’s him w two of his Hamilton Pride sons. They will be easy to ID in future since they have the TB testing brands on them

I think these males are more likely to be sons of 2 s125/Nwaswitsotso males and not his.

His time as dominant male of Hamiltons pride was very brief, when he lost it to 2 s125 males his offspring where small cubs (they might have survived but i doubt it).

Mantimahle males were also at Nkorho, with the Torchwood pride (per youtube comments), on October 4.

S.Avoca and Kruger Male looking great on a warthog kill, they were quite a distance from Mhangeni Pride. Savanna IG also says Kruger Male was chased from his territory by Mantimahles, but I thought he had already started making a move for Imabli Pride before they were fully on the scene. He was for sure ousted by Kambula males, however.

It will be interesting what happens if these two boys come across Tumbela or Khanya and NK. Being they are the most experienced lions in all of Sabi Sands, and former territorial males, I wouldn’t be surprised if they chase them around, but I’d rather they try make something stick, that’d be real cool. I also heard they were roaring in Londolozi together.

Tsalala and her three cubs at Singita. Great footage. Especially the video where she calls them and then they show up from their hiding place (last video). In one video a Plains Camp Male is with the pride. Cubs have been growing lately!

Ngl, there's not a single son of the Bboys that you can look at and say he doesn't look impressive, or looks like a below average male.
