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.

Mother of the Xikukutsu Males.
This is one of the Avoca pride lionesses. Easy to recognize her with her different coloured eyes.
She is the mother of the 3 sub adults that were born in December 2015.

2/2 Xikukutsu young males recently on a buffalo meal, though the 2nd boy, with healed wound on his back, seems losing his mane due to that injury.

It looks like Black Dam male, but raport was speaking about coalition of 3 and as we know Black dam is lone male so I do not think that was him.

"The team successfully located a massive pride of lions, close to our Safari Trails tented camp. The pride has seven cubs and was accompanied by a coalition of three large males!

We have seen this pride on a number of occasions as they move in and out of the area, close to the Olifants River to our north. It is even believed that one of the females gave birth to her most recent cubs in a drainage line close to the camp, and we are excited to spend more time getting to know this local pride! More updates to come..."

This is clearly not BDM,although" Lions of Timbavati " false claims he is. 

2nd picture is BDM 2 weeks ago:

And as it says in the post, this pride and males came from far north around Olifants river, this area is far north from BDM territory. 

Also, idk if it was posted, BDM vs his sons 1 month ago, i didnt seen this posted here:

Most likely, it is an old image. Because the wound on his head is similar to the one he had a few months ago when he was being chased by the Monwana Males. 

However Klaserie Sands Last year has received been the visit of the Black dam male in the Southern Parts of the Reserve.

Full action starts at 1:38:25 min mark :





It seems that young males days with a pride is over, he might join few times when Ross males are not there but they wont tolerate him anymore, especially Tyson who by all the rangers words is very agressive and mean lion, while his brother Fabio, even slightly bigger, is quite stable caracter and only suports his brother. 

This WildEarth/SafariLive broadcast from Ngala is pure gold, as we can get to know better famous Birmingham pride and Ross males, rangers are excellent too with information they give,props to them.

The two Xikukutsu Avoca males have been seen in northern Thornybush quite a bit lately, this time minus the Mapoza male.
