THANK YOU! This makes my day happier and sleep comes easier too. Watching these amazing lions is a treasure.
Your closeups are absolutely stunning. The Orpen male must be very gentle with the new cub for the lionesses to be so comfortable around him.
Awe how sweet was that? I will tell you, very sweet!! Amazing to see the young Orpen male with the cub, and mom just chilling. So excited to see what happens with this pride I wish them well on their journey. I hope the cub makes it to adulthood and has a long life, for all of them. Thank you for this lovely video.
Thank you, Tristan for sharing this delightful video, you are a terrific spokesperson guide. 🙏🦁🐾🐾💗✌
Thank you so much Tristan amazing sightings today love the MBIRI pride and little cub cuteness overloaded
Thanks for beautiful sighting;💥 wish these little adorable ones well. guess u have not recently seen Handsome RedRoad , Nicila n Mandevu? 🤔. May they alllll thrive
I think Nchile and Mandevu left that area. I saw a video last week with Ncile mating but Mandevu wasn't there 😢
@@deeT02 thanks for info... well the last video I saw was that they had returned to the area 🤔 wow..Ncila ? Mating? so the pride needs a stable guardian now ..hmmm..it's un4tunate...wish them well..
Thank you, Tristan for this heartwarming update on the Mbiris🙏🏻❤️🐾 Like in the last video, it wasn’t easy to watch Shaka feasting on that hyena… But seeing the Mbiri cub is just wonderful! Just worried for the youngsters now that the Tintswalo Males are in Kruger’s busy with the Skorro Females. It’s truly amazing to see how close the Orpen Male is allowed to that little cutie! Let’s hope nothing bad comes from it🙏🏻 Let’s hope it’s good practice for him as a future father… And may he be helpful if needed, if there’s any danger to the little ones. Do you think the Tintswalo Males may come back at some point or do you think the left the Mbiri Pride for good?
I been wondering the same thing
Orpen Male is part of the pride, so what could be the problem? It's not like he's a newcomer trying to take over the pride.
I'm more concerned there is only one cub. Should be more. As for the Tintswalo Males, it would be better for Mbiri pride to have new dominant males (not for Orpen Male or a cub, though). Tintswalos and Mbiri lionesses are too closely related. Shame Orpen Male has no natural coalition partners. Beautiful boy.
@@hotbit7327 Did you listen to what Tristan was explaining? Big lions, especially teenage boys, can easily hurt such a young cub unintentionally. I well aware the young Orpen Male belongs to the Pride. I’ve followed this Pride even before the Tintswalo Boys came to take over the Pride…
@@regulamariakoerner-feierab2594 Tristan doesn't get it right here. Sure, there is a risk he explained. But the same goes for humans, buffalos or elephants. There are much higher risks around for the cub than the Orpen boy. Being only cub is one of them. Orpen is the least to worry about. Lions are clever beings.
Always great full for your videos thank you♥️
Any update on RedRoad
❤🐾🐾 This is a great channel watching from South Florida USA
Thank you Tristan another amazing and awesome video Shaka is massive & a moment of shock for me as I love hyena ❤... moving on to The sweetest cub sighting that is so beautiful - what a cutie pie 🦁 Marianne NZ
Who is the likely father of these cubs? The orphan male was mounting a female in a previous video and the Tintswalo males have been gone quite awhile.
Female's stay pregnant for 120 day so take this cub is around 1 1/2 or 2months now.. so go back 6months and see what males were mating with mrbri lioness. Which was Tintswalo males and mbris male did mate with 2 of females
I have Blue Herons where i live. Stunning birds.
😊thank you Tristan for another wonderful video,God bless you.
Brilliant content!
That lion was treating the hyena like his precious. Maybe he has an injury or illness and can't hunt on his own. Lions kill and gnaw on hyenas, but don't usually eat them.
He has an injury, on his abdomen looks like his intestines is coming out. Maybe from a hunt gone wrong? I hope he has a speedy recovery he has been healing for months now. Poor Boy Bless his heart. It's been a while since seeing him and Scar together, I hope all is well.
@buffiesilver, he was injured in a fight months ago. He's been fine and hunting. You can tell he's not skinny. He provides just likes killing hyenas.
Great stuff.life continues.
@ 3:25 The lion eating the hyena had a big lump under its belly. Is that a hernia? What's up, does anybody know?
Yes He got it in a fight months ago
❤🐾🐾
Presumably people here know what's happened around Ngala, some distance from here, with the Guernsey male? Well, the 2 Mbiris are surely in better "condition" now. Protein, you know. Shaka has gone up and down in recent months, and he does have a bowl under the tummy and a bump on the back--these things were probably not there a year or more back. He could be the father of the cub, based on face/head shape and eyes. Scar/ZigZag is in fairly good condition, with some weird lumps on the left rear thigh. The mouth/jaw thing is from a couple of years or so back, probably kicked by a buffalo; he's got all four fangs, the injury most likely dislocated tendons/tissue, jaw bones themselves probably not broken. Junior Jr. Orpen was born in February of 2021, so go figure out how old he and his sister are. He would've been under 3 years old at the time of mating, IF he's the father of the cub. Most likely it IS biologically possible. Do research. Ever heard of 12 and 14-year-old humans becoming parents? I never said for certain who the father is. Shaka Mbiri has been hanging around the pride here for some months now, so .... Cub could STILL have been sired by Tintswalos.
Oh wow, all those rhinos! That is amazing. Hopefully they continue to survive and grow their numbers!
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Have you seen Red Road and the Nharus? That cub is adorable ❤ Is he eating the hyena? I saw 1 2 days ago, but the male was super skinny.
Red road and the Nharus have been seen but we haven’t been able to see them because we have been so busy following the Mbiris
imbiri male eating
@@tintswalovirtualsafari😢
And now Shaka moved north and with his brother killed the Guernsey male, partner of the Avoca male. Guernsey and Avoca were mating with a Birmingham Breakaway female and roaring, it must have caught the Mbiris' attention. Crazy stuff.
9:39 there has to be more than one cub....
If Red Road or the Mbriri males encounter the young Orpen male, the young male has a huge problem. He has been very lucky that there are no dominant males with the pride and the females tolerate him.
Is is normal for the herring to eat a chick?
Thought Hyena meat was not good. Must have been hungry.
So nobody knows who the father is? All the gooing over the cub, but no valuable information? Probably the 2 Mbiri males. In the previous video, with the hyena, both Mbiris were mentioned, though the one with the jaw issue wasn't in the images. Junior Jr. [Orpen] seems tolerant, but as he mentions, teenage cubs can use a small cub as a toy. I've seen it in video. They can accidentally harm, but it's deliberate when the small cub becomes a toy until it's dead. I wouldn't be completely shocked if Junior Jr. is actually the father. He's probably already tried to mate with the lionesses. Look at videos going back six months.
Not likely it's young orpen male offspring which at time.he would be 3 1/2 at time. It be tintswalo males or mbris males either way it doesn't matter none of them around at moment. Mbris pride if fine at moment with dominant males
Mbris males needs help. There's a reason why Shaka eating hyenas there not in good shape, zigzag is bad shape at moment.
Make doesn’t seem to be in the best of shape ,seems weak and maybe that’s why the pride isn’t paying to much attention to him
