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.

Yea, this male definitely is not Torchwood male that was seen with Fourways pride, he had smudge on his nose and belly hair. 

Maybe the other 2 Torchwood males? I cant find any photos of them to compare.

Rather just some unknown Kruger males. They definitely does not need to come from Sabi Sands.

He said 23 lions, which is not alot considering that only Nkuhumas has 17 members,also Ximhungwe lionesses venture in their territory, aswell as Torchwood pride in the east.

He said some lions where seen in the west, might be the Styx pride.

Nkuhuma pride with 2 N. Avocas on a buffalo kill in north MalaMala :





It seems that lioness who was hanging out with Nkuhuma young male reunited with the pride in past weeks as rangers are saying that theres 8 females, which is good for her. And that 2 younger  females are still mating, in future we can expect even more cubs  from 4 younger females, this pride will be massive when those cubs will be born and i wouldn't be suprised that this younger females split when their cubs come, otherwise their cubs will have a hard time surviving alongside bigger half brothers/sisters.

Also somebody said sexes of the Nkuhuma cubs: 5 males, 3 females and youngest one is most likely male too.

Mhangeni pride with Othawa male in Singita :

1 of the older lionesses is missing, she was spotted alone few days ago in Savanna away from the pride, she is most likely denning, so we might expect new cubs in Mhangeni pride soon.

This time it seems that lioness found him as this was in Singita in Mhangenis territory, but it seems that this lioness is fertile.

They where seen on western boundary of Sabi Sabi, few weeks ago they where seen in south MalaMala aswell, it seems that they are starting to hang around that area, in a empty territory between Bboys in the north and S. Avocas and N'waswitshakas in the south.

Hope they find the 3rd brother. This Mantimahle sons can became a real problem in a year or two in Sabi Sands if they stay here.
