Ron2, the only survivor of the once mighty M7 young coalition! Rekero Boy, he probably lost Cesar2 and Green Eyes when Olarro South went belly up and was taken back over by people. Bless this boy here!

Most of Rekero Boys male offspring have disappeared, presumably killed by the spear. They have left many lioness around tho. We can only hope they sired some offspring in Olarro and Olarro South which if they did probably will be killed by spear too. But they have legacy in Naboisho, Ol Kinyei etc...
Grandsons of legendary duo Lolparpit and Olbarnoti! 2 of Acatia Pride dispersed sub adults, about 3 years old, sired by 4 Ex-Offbeat/Mara North Boys/Isaketa Boys!

Salas Boys with the Rekero Pride, those boys are tanks. The one male has what appears to be fresh bite marks on his back. Also interesting, he is following that female, appears to attempt to mate at one point, but is not interested in checking her fresh urine, and she shows no interest. Not sure if that cub is hers, though it does appear it might be, but if it is I'd imagine the mother is not going to be in estrus for some time yet.

Might be the strongest 3 male coalition in the Mara, together with the 3 Rongai Boys. Osapuk is a big boy! Orkitok is recovering from his front paw injury... Question, where do you see injury on back? On which male? Was it Osapuk? Osapuk had slight limp on back hip/leg for long time now. It is improving as far as I can see! I see none on any of them. Very clear images and they all look great, thank God! (11-24-2022, 11:47 AM)BigLion39 Wrote:(11-24-2022, 02:20 AM)BA0701 Wrote: The one male has what appears to be fresh bite marks on his back. It must be Osapuk, as it is the one with a slight limp on his back hip/leg. Not sure if this is a bite, a scar, or simply how his hair is lying in that spot. But what I see is in this area.  *This image is copyright of its original author

I've noticed that on many different lions too.!!! As far as I know none of the Salas Boys have been attacked at all! Thank God! Oh and yes that is the massive boy Osapuk!
Yeah, Osapuk is the biggest, but Olepolos is the most dominant among them. :) But it not means a lot indeed all 3 boys are large beasts!
Great example of how difficult it can be for a lone lioness to hunt, even when ambushing a very dense and large gathering of prey at a water hole. It appears this girl had to begin her approach from too far away on open ground.

Olepolos is the less dominant of the 3 salas. It is orkitok(the one with black dot on the muzzle) who is the dominant male followed by osapuk (11-26-2022, 08:01 PM)Mwarcaar Wrote: Olepolos is the less dominant of the 3 salas.

I've read from Rangers and guides and people that have seen them that he is usually is the front runner and is always in the mix. Even the videos and pics I see Olepelos is always out front and most aggressive of the 3. That said, dominance is dynamic and all 3 work exceptionally well as a team! They are turning out to be 1 of the most successful young boys out there together with the 3 Rongai Boys up in Naboisho. |
