The Matimbas announcing their presence at Singita. Both look well fed and have gained back some condition as well. Good retirement spot for the old boys. 
The Matimba coalition revival ! Perhaps we could speak too about the lion's nine lifes... After all, it is also a cat.

Well that can be a genetics and circumstances things..... We exactly don’t have any info about their ages. We estimated their ages by looking at their stature in 2010. And that’s how we did it. And if we look a bit back and have a look at both group of males pics from 2010. They both exactly look to be around 4.5/5 years old.... And i want to you to look it for yourselves or ask a ranger from Manyelti. I have seen MalaMala, Ep rangers and Sabi Sabi rangers and tintswalo rangers writing Matimbas at around 13 years old but fan bases on the social media have been putting them 10, 8, 11 years old. One on chene post after that video. It seems we don’t listen to rangers now and believe in what we want to believe in.

I know 'looks' is not at all a reliable indication of age, but they looked younger back then than the young avocas do now. (I'm not saying I'm right, just that they looked younger) (05-09-2018, 04:00 PM)Tshokwane Wrote:(05-09-2018, 11:21 AM)Leroy Wrote: How old are the southern matimbas? isn't hairy belly like 12? Well let's hope they have a nice retirement. They should be able to hold that ground. Famous last words.

We'll have to wait to find out, but if they stick together and are able to feed themselves then I guess he should have more time.
