After the fight between Nabo and the new males, I returned to camp to try and figure out who these new lions were. It was hard to photograph them during the fight because of their nervous disposition and the fact that they kept hiding in bushes. I was also not sure whether there were 2 or 3 males.
However, I did have a few photos and decided to try and compare these with the photos I had of the 3 males I had seen in West Gate Community Conservancy (see Real Lions 3). I didn’t think these would be the same males but I didn’t know of any other 3 males in the area, so it was worth a shot comparing the photos.
What do you think? Are these the same lions?
