Seen a rumour they may have beat him up while they mated with Giraffe Pride females, went to check up on it and couldn’t find the post so make what u will of that. Don’t think they ousted him, although he hasn’t been seen for some time I don’t think. 
They definitely ousted him.
Though he may return if the BB fully leaves the pride for Kambula reasons.  
Question so where is the 5th monwana boy? I thought it was 5 older boys and the 6th was younger?
@Tr1x24 You must have missed it, I don't remember if it was posted here but it was all over Facebook.
Many sightings of them with Hercules' pride and he was nowhere to be seen since they took over his pride and territory. But like I said, they may abandon/have abandoned it like Kambulas usually do. 
A long waited update from Sandringham where Black Dam pride with Xikukutsu males residate.

Also mentions that 1 of the 2 cubs born in 2024 was actually a white lion and it seems it very well may still be living, although I’m not sure if that’s Black Dam Pride, but great nonetheless. I’m looking forward to hopefully seeing the male offspring from both Xikukutsus, see if they inherited their massive size. 
I’m super happy regarding the news of the Black Dam Pride, Their Protectors and their new cubs that include a white lion.
On another development, Johan Smalman has shared that the BYM we affectionately call Nephew has now been properly named: He will be known as Lillydale Madoda “ Heads up from Johan Smalman out of Shindzela Camp in Timbavati te young Birmingham male: Just for your information. The Guides this side have decided to start calling the Young Birmingham Male by a new name. He will be known as the Lillydale Male or Lillydale Madoda. Basically too many Birmingham Males and Birmingham Breakaway Males names going around and seeing he was born on Lillydale it just makes sense for us and stops all confusion between all the Guides this side.”  (01-16-2025, 01:22 PM)Potato Wrote: A long waited update from Sandringham where Black Dam pride with Xikukutsu males residate. Wow this is a pleasant surprise, from what has been reported this reserve was quite dark before. Now, in addition to updates, these animals will have more security. It's incredible what could exist there all this time without us knowing.
Question for the members of this thread who’ve been around for a while, after Black Dam Pride went into Sandringham they created a breakaway, majority of the pride stayed over there with Giraffe Male and 3 lionesses stayed in Timbavati with their sons until they too split.
Did Xikukutsus takeover the main pride from the Giraffe Male or the breakaway before also heading into Sandringham? And if so, what happened to the 3 breakaway lionesses, unless they joined back to the main pride. Anyways, I think it’s a great time for Sandringham to drop their fences within the year, the young BDMs will be nearing 4 and I’m not sure there’s a separate pride for them to take.
Ok I think I got it having read up a bit more on this thread, so Xikukutsus seemed to have taken over the Black Dam breakaway pride that previously stayed in the Southern parts of Thornybush and headed into Sandringham with them. So the 4 females of main Black Dam Pride along with the Giraffe Male and the cubs thought to be sired by him all disappeared in Sandringham? They could somehow still be alive over there, no matter how unlikely it is, even Giraffe Male would be 14 so aside from being poached or any casualties, I guess it is possible.
