Not really actually. Looking at what they achived past 2013 when they split (so not counting takeovers of Torchwood and Koppies prides), Northern Matimbas manage to takeover only one pride (Skorro) while their southern brothers tookover briefly Styx and Kambula prides and for longer Tsalala and Othawa prides. On top of thed they were mating and could potentially sire some cubs in Mhangeni pride. Also Southern Matimbas stick to power for longer peroid of time and survived to much older age so they seem all around more succesfull to me.

Tbh Northern Matimbas seem even more unlucky. I would argue that competition Nothern Matimbas faced was more formidable than Birminghams were. Avoca/Giraffes had more numbers coampared to Birminghams and had almost at a peak age 2 massive males to lead them - old Avocas.

Who are the fathers of the mbiri males? And I don’t think hairy belly and ginger sired any cubs after the nkuhuma pride only gingerella made made it unfortunately not sure about the northern brothers Reply

In theory any of the 5 could sire them. My personal guess is that Zig Zag was sired by Slit Nose. In regard in Shaka Mbiri it is difficult to even guessing since he has so uniqe look.

It is unfortunate that their cubs from Tslalala pride did not make it to adulthood through it doesn't mean Matimbas did there any worst with this pride, han their northern brothers did with Skorro pride. It was more of luck factor than argument for Northern Matimbas to be more succesfull.

I believe they should have a lot offspring from Torchwood pride and deffinitelly I wouldn't count out Othawa males. Also regardless if little Othawas were succesfull or not Matimbas were succesfull with Othawa pride ruling the pride for long peroid of time and raising their offspring to adulthood. Reply

Shaka most likely by WhiteFace Matimba.

As far as i know, 2nd generation of Mbiri offspring should be sired by N.Matimbas.

Same goes with Torchwood pride and S.Matimbas, as offspring in Torchwood pride was born late 2013/early 2014.

Split happened thru 2013. Reply

Personally if I would have to guess then I would bet that Shaka Matimba sired Shaka Mbiri. I can see arguments through for White Face Slite Nose and Ginger as well. For me only HB would be an odd guess to be a father for Shaka Mbiri.

Indeed split was happening throughout 2013. As far as I remember back then White Face and Slite Nose were mostly spending their time with Mbiri pride and preassuring Nkuchuma males to takeover Koppies pride while Shaka nad southern Maimbas were mostly spending their time in the south of their terriotry, but still there is a big difference between "moslty" spending time in direct arena and beeing there all the time and with that not having access to females from other arenas. Southern Matimbas in 2013 could very well travel north to mate with females there as well as Northern Matimbas could travel south for mating purpose. In fact according to Tintswalo blog 4 of the 5 Matimbas were present when they killed 1/2 Nkuchuma males locking takeover of northern Manyeleti with Kopppies pride. Reply

Mayanbula Male: He really have the face of Zigzag especially the eyes that looks like a sleepy lion.

Most Mayambula males resembles Scar which is a bit interesting considering Shaka was dominating the mating rights at the time. Reply
