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.

Stunning photos of these two kings. Very interesting times ahead for the two last Gowrie males. With the presence of the 5th Mantimahle and the two young males. They'll have problem soon

Or for Southern Avocas depends in which part of Mala Mala they were spotted.

Well said Potato. Both coalitions will be a threat for the BBoys. Anyway, They're in good condition and are good fighters. So would be interesting how they will react.

At that time of the years Kambula pride and so Birmingham males as well mostly spent their time further west than usual so they will not necessarily look for a confrontation right away. Southern Avocas on the otherhand seem a bit boxed in by neighboring coalitions in south-estern Sabi Sands and may not afford to give any more ground. A lot depends in which part of Mala Mala those newcomers were seen.

They are in the area where Fourways pride can be seen, around Windmill.. That means that 2 Kruger males might have problem soon, but they are mostly north with Torchwoods now.

5th Mantimahle is still much bigger then these young boys..

How old are his sons/nephews anyway?  If they are already roaring and scent marking, seems like they feel they're ready to scrap.  Easier to take out the lone Northern Avoca DM with that limp he has, but a lot depends on luck, location, and whose territory they see as a worthy prize to fight for.  Plus, the 6 Kambulas would be a prize if they can kill/drive off the cubs/subs.

One thing is for certain, there will be a lot more interest in their actions and information coming out about them if they do indeed decide to attempt any take-overs and stick around in Sabi Sands.

I saw a very recent video on Facebook of what seemed to be 5th Mantimahle and his two sons in MalaMala, roaring away. Testing times for the Bboys ahead.
