    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.

    For Dark Mane to have held his territory for this long he has without a doubt had to scrap a few times. His injury will not prevent him from fighting for his pride and more importantly his life and territory. Even with his injury he is still an impressive big male. I wouldn't count him out.

    • @dontehawkins1184
      @dontehawkins1184 Před 2 lety +1

      I agree he some folks forget he was the leader and dominant northern avocas male and he killed the world’s famous female hyena 3 years ago which caused a very difficult time for the hyenas and just because mo hawk and blondie left they aren’t far they moved up away from dark mane and the talimights but he’s holding down this area and this guide seems to be stuck on this imbellie male but wat this male don’t know is that if he fight dark mane it won’t be a walk in the park although that injury dark mane have may cripple him alittle but mo hawk and blondie will definitely hear their brother roar or screaming out in pain and blondie still loves his brother it’s mo hawk who won’t allow blondie near dark mane but I doubt that they will let him get killed or ousted and even if dark mane loses he knows where to find his brother’s and then they will come back and kill this imbellie male and then maybe cut there differences and split up again but I can’t c them hearing the fight and don’t come and atleast investigate or help out

Hell he does, he went in MalaMala following his brothers then back to Arathusa yesterday. I wish i could predict his next move ..lol. He will be alright for the time being.

    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.

    So this means that the Mbali male might go further south into Djuma to chase out DM and DM would probabaly seek refugee with his brothers. I dont expect Mbale male to challange Mohawk and Blondie so DM would be safe in their territory. I just hope the cubs wont be killed be either males and the females make a smart choice by mating with both males.
