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.

This 5th Mantimahle is on his own, he isnt with his 4 brothers anymore, he is closer to Sabi Sands in south east, east of Skukuza, his brothers are further east of him, they mauled 1 male few weeks ago towards Lower Sabi, lucky guy somehow survived, from the reports. 

5th Mantimahle is mostly seen with Sand River pride and most likely Fourways pride. 

They sired 5 young Sand River males, who are around 3 yrs old and already massive just like they fathers, they will be a beasts.

I look forward to see those young guns is Sabi Sands. With their fathers territory laying further east from Sand River pride it is quite likely that they will move in opposite direction so towards Sabi Sands (at least I hope for that).

Fathers of the Mantimahle males. "Taken in Feb 2015. My last photo of the Mazithi Pride Males. They still controlled the pride but only just. They were deposed shortly after this photo was taken. They ruled and protected the pride for about 10 years. A very long time for pride males. They sired many many male cubs but strangely not many female cubs. They gave me many photographic opportunities." Text and image by Tony Webb, posted March 11, 2020
