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.

Only really short clips were released as far as I know and nothing happened. They didn't touch each other. This wasn't the 1st time either that these 2 met.

Chongo is bulky not really tall. Koshoke is the big, big boy out of the coalition. He might be just as bug as Halftail. Well prob never be able to know exactly tho.  And yes Chongo confronted Halftail in his own territory. 3 Salas Boys just did the same thing last week and yesterday Haftail was photographed with Topi pride lionesses. Very strange.

1/4 Bila Shaka males (Kiok) mating with a Marsh Pride lioness (Kito). Halftail is still the territorial male over the pride but the Bila Shaka males have been sighted in the area often.

I think the last known male lion from the wild who has been as impressive once as Seenka nowadays was Lipstick's and the legendary 4'km males' father in the 2000s from Mara Triangle imho. His mane and his fully-wrapped elbow tufts was an almost impossible category to a wild male lion. (He's great-grandfather to the current Enkoyonai pride males/Fig Tree Boys Nyekundo&Osupaat, probably 3 Rongai boys and some other males too, also could be the grandfather to Blackie2, Kaka and Chungwa&Droopy, so his genes are living through these species, although none of them as impressive as he or Lipstick was.)

I gotta say, Kini, Seenka's blondie twin, is also quite impressive! His blonde mane, similar to Oleari is gorgeous! 

Wish we could know where or what happened to Olerai and Olekiti young Dikdik subs went as they might become as impressive as the 5 Sanaki Boys and their fathers. Such incredible genes coming all the way from the 3 Old Sopa males, supposedly.

Sadly i haven't found any more info on him/them yet. The only known fact is that he lived in the Mara Triangle probably with his brother or brothers in the 2000's. Around 2005 they sired the 4'km males - it is sure that he was Lipstick's father, but i still couldn't find any more...
Here are some more photos of him from this time also from Suzi Eszterhas:

Yeah, and also Merrinyo was the same blonde specimen along with Kini - probably his brother from the same litter, what a shame for his last year's demise...
Also Lemurt is so impressive and he has the largest body/weight among them, all of Olerai's sons are/were beautiful!
I think if they still were a coalition of 5 males along with Lerai and Merrinyo, now they would be chasing off the 4 aging Mara North/Ex-Offbeat males by now.
Here are some photos to their late father, the mighty Olerai from 2020:
