Thank you for this. It's a hard knocks life for the lions, love dark mane and hope he keeps his pride safely. The superpride male is very impressive so things are likely to happen soon. Sad for the cubs, its a dangerous time for them.

Excellent work. Please change absolutely nothing about the presentation style of these videos. Keep it all understated, quiet, and serene.

It’s hard but I’m learning to accept nature.

He has been with those 2 lionesses for a long time now. The rest of the Talamatis are staying more south. They are on a buffalo kill right now down south. I think it is already a done deal with the 2 lionesses. Only time will tell with the rest of the Pride. Dark Mane has been down south in Mala Mala near his brothers and around the other areas that they control.

Another amazing specimen. He has been visiting Talamati's for a while. Wasn't worried until the guide mentioned his roaring in close proximity to DM, and now it just comes out today that he (the Imbali/S8 male) has killed two of the Talamati subadult males back in March/April and no one mentioned it? It was known the old lionesses were in heat and DM often isn't around, I wouldn't be surprised if these females mated with both the Imbali/S8 male and DM Avoca. But news about the subadults is very concerning. Edit: I put a question mark because I don't know for sure...but it came out from someone responsible and who knows they shouldn't throw statements randomly to guests.

Who is the father of the cubs from the x2 talamati females? The Avoca male? Or this Mbali male? Lioness have been known to distract male lions to save their cubs. Especially the older and more keen lioness. So maybe they aren’t with him “for good”.
