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.

They're their first sons of the Mantimahle coalition from the S36/Mantimahle. I guess that they were born in 2015/16.

The Mantimahle males who appears in the pictures are: #3(Orange mane),#1(Charcoal mane) and #2(Honest face). 
Charcoal mane are undisputed leaders. Honest face have the largest body, but rank third, behind charcoal and orange mane.

These Mantimahle males are by far one of the most successfully coalitions of Kruger. They're between ten and nine years old. They once conquered one of biggest territories in Kruger. They still has their five members and still strong despite their ages that  is starting to slowing them down in terms of territorial patrols.

Those could one of the reasons, due the competition in the Kruger National Park is much high than any other area. The Mantimahle males once have dominates a area much larger than Sabi Sands Game Reserve. I'll dare to say that Manyeleti and Sabi Sands together as they were dominant on big part of Sabi Sands, Tshokwane and surroundings. Such a incredible coalition that we are lucky to seen still
