Thanks for the video 🦁🐾🐾 Watching from South Florida USA
Great footage. Hes still not had the fight yet here!
That "break away" pride were so close to each other. One cohesive family
They are the best of the best, they are fighting the insidious- the human and still 6 of them left. Most are young but they are up against the ruthless homosapien beast, amd the trophy hunters look benign in comparison of these insidious atrocities disguised by gaslighting as “its just nature, TB, naturally occurring anthrax- we dont intervene not to intrude on the natural selection of the fittest.
Thanks for this peaceful post. Beautifully colored wild dogs. Your seemingly favorite Lion Mandevu looks great. Would it be possible to provide the dates that the content is filmed please? Terrible thing about the Talamatis.
So good to see mandevu” where are the other tintswalo boys? And what news of their off spring?
I agree 👍 bro ❤🦁👑
Great to see Mandevu
Wild dogs are some of the most efficient predators.
Yes and low in numbers also.
🇮🇪 magnificent scenery very beautiful nature wonderful
I just realized after looking at close-ups of the wild dog faces how much they resemble German Shepherd dogs...or vice-versa.
Mandeve is a big beautiful male 👑 🦁 🐾 🐾great to see Talamatis breakaway prude Thank you
You really have the light for your camera down. Beautifully shot.
Love your video’s. It’s amazing how you know who is who and where they came from.
DREAM JOB!!!!!!
Very wonderful to see those species of dogs; always great to see Mandevu- this b4 or after fight? Hope that Ncila , Lambille n others are safe. Srry for the Talamati pride- felt very sad for the little tot- i was very concerned for his little future.... just wondering whether better protection can be made available for these gorgeous animals that keep dying n disappearing mysteriously... thanks for your videos n the work of the crew.
Very knowledgeable about the animals thanks sir be safe
Thanks for the video !
Even though Mendevu lost hes a tough Lion long as he is smart and doesn't try Red Road alone or at all he should be okay great to see
Beautiful pictures and good comments, however I have concerns about the filming of Mandevu. Further to its fight with RRM , he has certainly been injured within its jaws area but no sign of that in the video...🤔. It would be great if someone of the Tintswalo staff would kindly confirm how does Mandevu today and using this opportunity, let us know about N'cila and Lambile. Big thank you in advance and 🤞🙏 for all three we love so much.
Beautiful video. 🙏
Any update on N'cila or Lambile? It's been weeks since we had a video of either.
I heard they are over by the skybed dam
@@larryschirato6437 Are they together or just both in the same area?
Thanks for the vedios
Posion that is what killing them great video Great video
😥
So true. I read a report saying 9 lions were poisoned from poachers in the KNP. Sad.
@@user-wr5cn6kw7j yes very sad they won't leave pir lions or any animals alone humans are evil
@@user-wr5cn6kw7jwhere was this report from?
Hi. Thanks for the video. How can I find out if Jnr Ottawa is still alive?
Good luck with that I been searching hi and low and nothing. I know their are others like us searching with no updates or sightings?
It makes me sad for the Talamati breakaway, they had already lost a Lioness but losing one of the last two is tragic for the pride and the sub-adults...I really hope they are all okay and that the S8 male will not drop them. The suspicion of poisoning makes me nauseous and disgusts me, there are too many problems of this kind in your reserve, snares, poison, mysterious disappearance, what are you waiting for to take the problem seriously??!! it's not because you have too many (Timbavati who said that), that you should let them die at the hands of rots, you are acquiring a bad reputation as regards the safety of your reserve and the animals...need to put in more resources, hire (honest) rangers and be ruthless with all those poachers and poisoners lurking around, I remember what they did to poor Anton and others it shows you that these people are ready for anything, so be like them, ready for anything to save these animals so that they can live in peace...how much does a ranger earn?? Risking your life for a few hundred dollars must not attract crowds, everyone must put their hands in their pockets to raise these people, the reserves, the localities and the state, everyone benefits from these animals, it brings back a lot of money the Safaris, if tomorrow there was none, you will all have your hands in front, your hands behind...
Very well said. It's really the only way now. I just saw a post where they where following a female cheetah and her cubs. I'd have to look back to see what Reserve but I mentioned it was sad but if that's how it has to be, so be it. The animals are so worth whatever it takes to keep them safe from poachers or snares or whatever else may Comes their way.
Is this Sabi Sands, if so, yes, I am very suspicious of them.
@@karinajas north of sabie sands ,
You ppl need to realize this Manyeleti it's all ((open borders)) so they get hit from all angles. You cant stop everyone,
It's hub for wildlife in manyieleti in winter cuz they few water holes doesn't dry up that's why they tend to have snare issues
Make your mind
When update from Mandevu fighting red Road male?
This is it! You can see the marks on his face from RRM. He hopefully learned his lesson. I'm so glad S8 is with them.
@@sillygirl3284 I do not see any fresh marks on Mandevu's face there.
I guess it was filmed before the fight. Sad and suspicious, Tintswalo guys do not comment on the fight or publish filming dates. Seems they start to take more screen time than lions recently...
This is before the fight. The footage they show is 2-3 weeks old 👍
Travor Any updates on Ncilia. I saw a post state that over their by the skybed dam. Is their Truth to this?
Mandevu is OK. This time Red Road took the advantage graved MAndevu by his nose and didn't let go anymore. Next time it can be the other way around has they are both very powerful lions. RRM should be very careful cause Ncile is almost 100% recovered, his confidence is going up every day, and before the incident he was the Leader of the tintswalo males. Salut to you all⚔️⚔️⚔️
I was hoping for an update about what happened after the fight. Yesterday I saw a pic of Mandevu and he has some bite marks that have just missed his spine. Three deep holes that look fresh but unsure if they are before or after the fight with Red Road.
They both are fine...
Indomitable Talamati breakaways and the S8 - while all others fought fellow species Talamati breakaways and S8 fought and still fighting the apex of the apex predators- the humans and still formidable. Also, you do know what happened, core of Talamati breakaways territory is in Manyeti. The strong and indomitable Talamatiba got sick suddenly, deteriorated quickly and died on April 23 2023 cause was not made public (although samples were taken). Formidable Talamati Breakaways continued their same routes like a clockwork and on those routes the SalatinaTalamati, strong and formidable, seen a week before June 18 just fine and strong eating on a buffalo carcass then on that day in Artusa she is seen laying amongst her family skin and bones, suddenly sick and quickly deteriorated just like her sister. Four elephant carcasses and a buffalo carcasses found poisoned in and around Manyeleti and singita etc. on their route. You say you help when human cause or will at least make an error to help if suspected human cause ( if it is male lion especially) (and considering that the first lioness died exactly the same) if you cared you would have done something but you don’t help unless is quick stitch up from a snare and release - your prior behaviors are pretty good predictor of future behavior and i made a bet they will say it is TB (becausecthat would be most absurd of all) and guess what, WE said it and a few other sites …rumor has it and sadly and terribly I won a bet. Its just a lioness. Not worth time and money and you guys have zero expectations for successful outcome, and why have it when you can provide delayed well scripted statement attributing it to natural causes that only the fittest of the fittest must become immune too to survive and pass genes - luv statements befitting natural selection template language. I say, just be honest - say “ we luv enjoying the nature, viewing animals just like you do plus we make business of it. We hurt and are stingy when it comes investing more than minimum and prefer qick cheap solution that makes us look good but we do not engage and invest in any more than that and we will not”. At least own it. The littlest s8 too was not deteriorating, ironically he was fittest of the fit but last he was seen June 4 he had to go great distance around the loud turists vehicles so everyone can take a pic and video of his cute little struggles - you don’t turn engines off and control the distance and number of cars. Now, I will givith to you you guys are not the only ones, this is across the border and Kruger is worse, but own it.
Also, one way you can choose to not only do better but to lead in sustainable, consistent, expedient but through efforts not to allow single animal left behind but to go from a zero to a hero, must start with honesty, accountability, and call others fraud when fraud is a fraud- yap, not popular- call film crews similar to WE but instead of viewing animals to follow trainings amd field days and nights of rangers daily, have them wear camera, make no nonsense public investigations, expose problems and fix them, ask for funds from outside and everywhere, call on us veeees and guide’s us to help you taise funds and awareness - post cameras, drones, heat detectors that recognize human shape, vet visitors including make sure they have zero food on them to drop, fire staff who are incompetent and cant be retrained but train locals - if locals don’t get educated and involved this wont work in the long run, ask outside to give scholarships to locals to learn and get involved and show them how much their heritage can benefit thier economy and income more than when they are poor and setting up snares, show them that such actions rob their futures in large sector which can sustain itself if protected from outside - not many economic businesses have self sustaining and birthing products like nature itself. Make locals the advocates! So much but you have to invest time and effort in this more than just tourism to keep lodges full.
manyaletti is not a private reserve , like sabie sands or timbavati , SA gov run the manyaletti
“Manyeleti, borders on the Kruger National Park. The fence between the Reserve and the surrounding local community is in a terrible condition, and poachers simply walk into the Reserve with their hunting dogs.”
Is this b4 or after the fight with RRM?
@sillygirl3284 You sure? I cant see any new scars
How many in the talamati breakaway pride?
Only one is left. The other lionesses and smallest cub succumbed to "a mysterious illness" after eating a buffalo in the Manyeleti. Rumors abound of poisoning. Unless they acquired the carcasses of the lionesses and sent them for proper autopsy nothing will be known.
@@sillygirl3284THANK YOU FOR ALL THIS FABULOUS INFO. N KEEPING US IN THE KNOW 🦁🐾🍃🩷
@@sillygirl3284 thanks for that. I prefer to follow male coalitions then the prides.
Stay away ftom RRM meadevu you be ok
0 p P 0.
I agree
How are you?
Is he the one who got hurt by the Red Road male lion?
Yes that's correct
KAREN COWBOY 😂😂😂😂😂😂
By himself alot lately... risky.
@Tintswalo Is it such a big problem to post a filming date? Was it before or after the fight with Red Road? No word so far. No surprise people get suspicious on many occasions.
It could be dangerous to the lions because of the bad people trying to kill them.
I wonder what would happen if you snuck up on a sleeping pride and sprawled down laying your head on the leader's shoulder? Has anyone ever tried this??
You would have fewer brains than their usual prey
Terrible..
Something very horrible is going on in your reserve. Your loaded with Bovine TB, Snares,poachers,Antrax poisoning, and are losing lions under mysterious circumstances. We know that Buddy and Junior died from Antrax poisoning. You had four Tinswallo males and under mysterious circumstances one went MIA. This is not good for your survival as a Safari tourism will not want to do business with your reserve. You need to get more APU,and Rangers with high moral standings. This is your responsibility, other wise close up shop and leave. I'm not blaming you,but you need to get this under control.IMO.
