Dreadlock DeLaporte and the 'shy' Nkhulu #4, around late 2023

Dreadlock has been missing since April and guides at Kirkman's themselves say 6 Nkhulus are often seen but the old man hasn't shown up for months. Can only hope he went out peacefully.
Nkhulu #4 is said to be accounted for and all 6 brothers should be fine, yet we have had no pictures of him for the past two months, being his most recent shot posted around june 15.
There were recently 5 Nkhulus together and over the last two months (almost three) all brothers were pictured around Kruger and Sabi Sand, except for him.
Hopefully he is just a bit shy and will show up eventually.
Smudge Nkhulu #1 andbeyondkirkmanskamp: "The King’s Stare. A male lion's intense gaze pierces through the wild, embodying the raw power and untamed spirit of the bush."

All brothers except for #4. I think he could be gone.
Also, it looks like their overall condition keeps going up and down, and not in the usual way that happens due to changing seasons, prey migrations, etc.
It seems like their health issues are here to stay.
