Since that fight is controversial, I preferred to not mention it.

Fursan, the old boys won that fight against the Matimbas right? I don't remember clearly but I am 99% sure that they did and for people who don't understand the significance of this win, you have to remember that the Mapogos were very old in this fight, with Mak being 13 and PB being 11 (Only T was 9). Even with a massive limitation(old age), they still beat/pushed back the younger and slightly bigger Matimbas.

Old Mala Mala Report about Mapogos

November 2004


EYREFIELD MALES = 3

1 ADULT MALE                    * 6 YEARS 1 MONTH
2 SUB ADULT MALES         * 46-and-a-half MONTHS

Location: FLOCKFIELD, CHARLESTON, TOULON
As has been expected for some time now, the Eyrefield Pride seems to be in the process of a split, as some of the young males approach the age of being mature enough to challenge for a territory. The 6 year old male and two of the nearly 4-year old males are spending more and more time away from other pride members, and have been seen way down in the south of the reserve. The other three sub-adult males are still moving with 6 females of the pride, including 3 adults (one of them the 6-year old) and three sub-adults. Two of the older adult females have been seen with no other pride members accompanying them, but it appears that these two are a part of the group of nine seen quite frequently.

[b]Old Mala Mala Report about Mapogos[/b]

December 2004


EYREFIELD MALES = 3 

1 ADULT MALE                    * 6 YEARS 2 MONTH
2 SUB ADULT MALES         * 47-and-a-half MONTHS

Three of the male lions of the pride, namely the adult male and two of the nearly 4-year old sub-adults, have not been seen with other pride members for many weeks now, yet they have often been seen together. This suggests very strongly that they have now broken away from the pride, and are looking to establish themselves as a territorial coalition. Most of the sightings of these males were recorded in the south of the reserve, on both Charleston and Toulon.

Old Mala Mala Report about Mapogos

January 2005


The Eyrefield Males were seen on numerous occasions in January. Most of these sightings were on Charleston and a few on Toulon. The lions were never seen with any other lions during this period. One of the Eyrefield Males is a little over 6 years old, the other two about two years younger. They seem to be doing well, and may soon be a fully fledged territorial coalition. It will be interesting to see when they attempt to take over any prides of lionesses and young.

Old Mala Mala Report about Mapogos


February 2005


The Eyrefield Males were seen on several occasions in February. Early in the game report period, they were not accompanied by any other lions, but then they were seen to again spend time with their pride of origin. Just what their status is, territorially, is not yet clear. What could well still happen is that the rest of the young male lions of Eyrefield Pride origin join forces with the three Eyrefield Males. Six or seven male lions together would make a most formidable team. Psychologically, however, some of the sub-adult males of the Eyrefield Pride are probably not yet ready for this life style.

Old Mala Mala Report about Mapogos

March 2005


The three male lions, including the adult, that had apparently left the Eyrefield Pride and looked to be getting ready to establish themselves as a territorial coalition, again spent a fair amount of time with other Eyrefield Pride members in March. They certainly showed a certain level of continued loyalty to the pride.
