the Selati coalition
|
In my opinion, Selati #3 was the bravest of the 4, he was a great hunter just like his brothers and after Selati #2 death he was probably the most dominant out of the 3 remaining males. He started to show an amazing and beautiful black mane back in 2014, a stunning male lion. The King of the Selati Coalition

The King of the Selati Coalition As far as i know, this is not Selati #3, Selati #3 is the male with least developed mane, who died after fight with Majingilanes.

Sorry to tell but Selati #3 had a well-developed mane and most likely the second darkest in the coalition. The one with the least developed was Selati #2. He died due to injuries caused by buffalo.  *This image is copyright of its original author Singita, I don't know exactly when the photo was taken but it was posted on Singita's Facebook page on December 31, 2013

The King of the Selati Coalition TR1X24 is a very knowledgeable member of WildFact, along with the vast majority of our members who have a wealth of knowledge on these lions (myself excluded). I don't know who's right and who's mistaken in this exchange, but I believe your comment was misplaced.

The King of the Selati Coalition Pretty sure this is Selati male no.3. in addition to recognizing his appearance, an eight-year-old comment on the post also stated that this male in the photo S#3. {8a = 8 anos (8 years in portuguese)}  *This image is copyright of its original author I won't base this only on that, ofc. I can say it again, I'm sure Selati #3 was a male with a developed and dark mane, and in this photo we have him I don't want to turn this into a big discussion, so I can post more pics of him later.

The Selati males in an attempt to hunt buffalo back in 2012 "This buffalo bull was quietly chewing the cud with three of his mates when their leisurely morning was rudely interrupted by the Selati males"  *This image is copyright of its original author "The Selati male made an attempt but the Buffalo were way too quick out of the blocks." Here we can see Selati male no.3 on the run for the buffalo herd  *This image is copyright of its original author all credits to its original authors

"One Selati Male, he was calling as the sun was rising on a pleasantly cool morning. He was on our airstrip no more than 50 meters from the lodge." This male in the photos is Selati #3.  *This image is copyright of its original author  *This image is copyright of its original author both photos posted March 15, 2014 on inyati's facebook
I found some really nice videos of the Selati males in a channel, all posted back in March 30, 2014
In this first video we have male no.1 who was walking towards other Selati, then he shows some affection for his brother, male no.3

"An interesting turn of events unfolded this morning. The lone Birmingham male got chased off the carcass he had stolen from the Nkuhumas by the Selati males sometime during the night. He was located with the Styx female, and she was attempting to induce copulation, without success. This is most likely an attempt at distraction to pull the male away from where her remaining cub is stashed.
