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.

One of the Sand River young males, son of the Mantimahle males. Those pictures were taken 9 months' ago and after that nothing ever since, sadly. He had fighting injuries on his butt, but those injuries weren't life threatening.

3/4 beautiful cubs from Renosterkoppies pride, sired by the Mantimahle males. Picture taken in Feb 2021. Hopefully all four of those cubs are alive still. Will try and find out the latest information on that pride.

Indeed. This was around late 2020 or even early to mid 2021. Haven't heard nothing of them in ages. Hopefully they're still doing well and are spreading the Mantimahle bloodline throughout the Kruger National Park.

If i remember correctly, that was on s21, close to Nwatimihiri.
Wow.
These Mantimahles had something very scary characterities in addition to their impressive apperances. I remember, when they entered into Sabi Sands as 5 huge young males around 2016, and everybody thought and feared that, they would also destroy almost the entire reserve just like the Mapogos and the Majingilanes anno. At that time, they would have had only one opponent coalition who could compete with them - the 4 Birmingham males - as the last Majingilanes were already getting old. After all, they didn't stay long either in SS...

A great sighting of 5\8 Nkuhlu young males offspring of Mantimahle Males seen on the H4-1 recently about 4km from Skukuza. They are with Dreadlocks De Laporte. It's wonderful to see these boys doing well and that they are with an experienced male that's not their father. Credit: wildlife photographer

Absolutely wonderful.
Under dreadlocks guidance, it would be a successful coalition I hope.
Dreadlacks male was youngest in the de la Porte coalition. So he shoutbe in his prime, 9 yrs old maybe
