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.

@BA0701 
The 5th Mantimahle has been seen 2 weeks ago with the two Mantimahle young males (sired by the Mantimahle coalition) their first offspring in the entire Kruger National Park
If they stay with him this coalition look and sound very promising. The 5th Mantimahle male is getting old and the competition for their territory is crucial at this stage. He is near of the 10 years old

Wow, that is really interesting @"TinoArmando" The young males are either his sons, or his brothers sons, is that right? I do hope we hear more on this sooner rather than later, absolutely amazing he has met up with them.

These S36/Mantimahle young males  look like much to the other Mantimahle males rather than the 5th Mantimahle male. However during those years when they took-over the Mantimahle dam area still were the 5 together. So more than likely he also is father of them.
Today they were on MalaMala Game Reserve around Wildmill area.
