From what I could gather from comments, it seems that these males are Kaka and Maridadi, sons of the 4KM males, but I'm not sure of it. Click on it to play.

OK. I’m behind in sharing photos again. We spent an incredible week in Kenya ??I was sad to leave, I could’ve stayed longer & the highlight of course was the wildlife. I felt very lucky & privileged to be able to get myself to Maasai Mara National Park. What an experience Earless  *This image is copyright of its original author

Sad, sad news from Mara North Conservancy (Masai Mara, Kenya). Karibu is dead. He was found in the morning hours badly injured, with a fractured leg. He was beyond repair and so the vet had no option other than to euthanize him. The injuries on his body suspects fighting with other lions. Rafiki is fine and with the large Cheli spilt group. It's going to be tough for him to keep them and his territory in tact now. Photo credit: William Kipetu, MNC manager R.I.P Karibu  *This image is copyright of its original author

@About #1428 and #1429:
The male lion's life is anything but quiet. The last years, I was amazed by the Earless's vigour and strength, I thought he was beautiful, but now, without his fellow, he lost his mane, wears some grazes at the pelvis or hips and back... A solitary lion can't get away, it is constantly stressed. Earless remains strong, but the threat to be molested by 2 or 3 unknown males, like the poor one at #1429, will still exist. He can always live by plundering, but of course it isn't a real male lion's destiny.

Credits to The Six BilaShaka/Pack Coalition for the info. The beginning of a new age This coalition of six male lions now 4 years old is likely to change the dynamics of the lion in Maasai Mara for the next 8 years! It is quite unusual for 6 young men in a Lion Pride to become independent. It is also unusual for the 6 to survive the first years of their nomadic life after abandoning their natal Pride. But if that happens, then the Pride of the Lion faces difficult times. In the year 2014 6 cubs of lions were born, in which there were 6 males, at the beginning it did not have a name, but as time went by each of them was given a name ... Meanings and thoughts behind their names below: Chongo meaning 'bad eye', for obvious reasons Kiok (Maa) meaning 'ear', due to his mismatched ears Baba Yao (Swahili) meaning 'their father', his dominance in the mating hierarchy brought to a new lease of life to Bila Shaka and the Marsh area Kibogoyo (Swahili) meaning 'toothless', due to one of his upper canines missing Doa (Swahili) meaning 'spot', due to his left eye spot Koshoke (Maa) meaning the one with the big belly They are still too young to compare them with the old Notch coalition that dominated 11 of 22 proud of the massai mara, Something inaudit... Well, let's repeat some quick background first: - born in Moniko's pride; sons of Lolparpit and Olbarnoti - 2 males were born in March 2014 and are brothers (Possibly Baba Yao And doa) - 3 males were born in May 2014; are brothers (Possibly Chongo, Kibogoyo, Koshoke) - 1 male was born in September 2014 (Possibly Kiok) So, this year's question is: will the Bila Shaka Males keep the Pride Marsh and the Pride Topi Plains or will they take over the Pride Enkoyonai from their parents? Well, if that happens, will they leave Marsh Pride and / or Topi Plains Pride forever? Or will this coalition be divided into 2 or 3 groups? Time will tell 4 of the 6 boys at topi plain  *This image is copyright of its original author
