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.

Zigzag mbiri has very impressive mane. He seems to be much bigger than his brother. 
Well, it's been almost 1.5 yrs since the mbiri boys join the skorro prides. How many cubs they sire? 
How many of them are male, females??

He is not much bigger (if you mean in height and lenght), they are actually around the same size, but Zigzag has more mass and bigger mane. 

Unfortunately, Skorro's are most of their time in Kruger, so we dont know much about them, but they have cubs yes.

Shaka is getting more and more impressive by the day. ZigZag is a magnificent beast as always.

The smaller-maned Mbiri male is looking in such amazing condition, even his mane looks much better now

Mbiri males hardly ever were spotted in a physical condition you couldn't describe as "perfect".

The Skorro pride in the road near Orpen camp, Kruger National Park. The pride seems to thrive under the protection of the Mbiri males.

That's great.. 
Seems like a very big pride. 
Nothing much is heard about them oftenly. 
Any idea, how many lionesses, cubs and subs in the pride?

I am not sure, but I believe there are 6 adult lionesses in total. There are no subs in the pride. I do not know how many cubs there are in the pride.

Ohhhhh Nooooooo.... 
With who(m) is he fighting with? 
He is not even 9 yrs old. He has beast of the beast shaka mbiri as his partner. 
He himself is a beast. ( Definitely the largest lion in timbavati). 
Yet from past many days we are hearing that he is limping, he has scars on his face, he has jaw injury, blah blah blah.. 
My question is who is fighting with him? 
Xikukutsu, mapoza and BDMs are engaged at thornybush, Ross males never leaves ngala, B'gham breakaways are still not nomadic, skorros males are happy with mayambula, YBM & TYM and Hercules & Sumatra are far away fighting for avocas and giraffe girls. So who is left to fight with older mbiris. Isn't skorro pride was far away? Sometimes it's pride members wanders to KNP as well. 

I think some young Turks ( nomad coalition) are on this DEADLY MISSION.

Most likely culprit are Tintswalo males or Skybed sons, who both live in close proximity to the Mbiri territpry

Skybed sons???? 
U mean old skybed Or otheir sons " Skybed".
As far as I know, half of the skybed males were killed by matimbas in 2010 and most of the remaining by old avocas/ giraffe males ( brutus and brothers) in 2018 around. 
Never heard about skybed sons. 

Tintswalo are themselves very poor. Only mandevu is somewhat healthy. Rest two are hardly fit ( for one it's even difficult to stand sometimes). 
Idk, but 6-7mayambulas, 3-4 nsemanis Or 4 moawana nomads could be behind this
