    Congratulations!! It’s ZaZa. The big scar on nose is a dead giveaway. I’ve looked back on other videos of him to compare. I’m super excited for you to find him and for us to see him. This just made my day Christof!! What a fantastic sighting!! Have a wonderful day my friend 💜💜🦁🦁

      Thanks so much for confirming Rachelle! Was great seeing him and his brother after learning of them through social media! I won’t say that he is the biggest young male in the KNP but definitely a good looking boy.
      Cheers my friend keep well and thanks again for the ongoing support 🙏🏻😄🦁🇿🇦

    I do believe you found our boy Zaza ! He is magnificent, and one of my favourite young males(my favourite is Olonkera from the Rongai pride). I’m glad to see Zaza is well , he had us really worried for a while!

      When I eventually realised it might be him I was so happy. I know the lion followers were looking for him. He was reported by other a few times but just managed to remain out of my grasp, not this time🎉
      If I may ask which channel does Olonkera feature on would love to have a look.
      This morning I had no luck but the Vurhami pride were close to the gate after I’ve passed through, only heard of the update latr in the am unfortunately! Gonna be back on the saddle tomorrow morning wish me luck!
      Enjoy the rest of your evening 🙏🏻😄thanks again my friend

      @@cs-wildcam Olonkera is the first cub of the Rongai pride that was fathered by the Black Rock males! His name means baby sitter because he is a lovely sweet lion and always takes care of his siblings/cousins. You might have heard about this pride after Olobor was killed by the farmers last January 💔💔💔 You can find a lot about him and his pride at “The mapogo lions” channel. Also if you search just his name you can find many videos about him! I ADORE HIM ❤️

      @@antonisconstantinou7422 never heard of them but will definitely go have a look 👀 human and wildlife conflict is such an ongoing issue Antonis I hear you. Humans fight for their livelihood and animals fight for their survival. It’s a very sad topic when you delve in. I’m thinking of the great work that a lady ‘Inki Mandt’ does with the desert lions in Namibië. Incredible effort they put in to save the last populations through reaching out to the farmers, providing kraals and ways to keep predators away from their livestock. Despite this the lions are still poisoned and hunted by many. Almost feels like a losing battle they are fighting in the west but they still put the effort in. My heart goes out to those in the west and others dedicating their lives to this cause🥹🙏🏻

    wow, that is a beautiful king. He is gorgeous. he looks very relaxed. I think you’re right about it being Zaza because if you notice his hair sticking up on top of his head, it has a dark brown streak in it and the other picture of Zaza has the exact same marking. waiting on lions is part of the trip I enjoy it very much. they have excellent profiles very handsome kings. I love watching them. he’s thinking there’s a nice chap in his truck. lol. I wonder if he’ll stay with his brother or get up and leave. you would think they get up and crossover before it gets too hot. Wow. Awesome sight of the two kings. it looks like they had to sleep a little bit so they could get up and walk to the shade. Excellent. thanks for video❤❤❤❤

    They are stunning. To be honest, I laughed every time you said it was getting too hot for them or they should be moving soon....they were thinking 'Dude, you're not our boss, we do what we want to do'...... I knew they were going to walk the other way....I was yelling at them, saying you waited so long, the least they could have done was walk towards you. So inconsiderate 🦁😆 Thanks Christof.....another beautiful video.

      It's one of the two I would say Zano is the one they call Tank Jr if I had to guess this would be him, but it could be Zozo. It's definitely Zaza. Thank you he looks to be OK they are just going to have to be careful around the ladies. They are entering a testing time as for now. Being Nomadic is when a lot of lions lose their life. I wish them well on their journey.
      Much appreciated to you Christof for all your time and everything else that it takes to do this and for you to share it with us its greatly appreciated with respect.

      @@buffiesilver identifying lions as you see them at that very moment is much more difficult then leopards. Unless there is a unique feature like Zaza or split nose for instance. Otherwise, most of the time they all look the same.
      I love the challenge and I’m up for it but it will take time with the change in lion dynamics. Even in the Timbavati there were so many new faces that rocked up and disappeared the very next day. Nothing worth while in this life of ours comes easy I guess.

    Oh hello there, Handsome 💕 So this IS Zaza. What a magnificent & intimidating specimen he is! O M 🦁, an other gladiator just entered the stage. The duo looked simply glorious in the morning sun. Christof, do you feel fortunate to be in their presence, amidst nature & its magic? You are rich. For many, we have to imagine or dream of the actual sensory of being there.
    Human-wildlife conflict is so contentious & deeply rooted in SES issues. It’s not just SA/Africa but a global quandary. Humans are the problem for other species. We are the reason that some species have been extinct & many are endangered. We, however, can change to ameliorate. There’s a will, there’s a way. Let’s speak on their behalf. Let’s tell their stories. Madiba, rally the Madibs tribe. Let hope abound ☀️

      Fukatrum my friend! Thanks again for your brilliant comment! It’s been another full day from 4am this morning so it feels like I need a dictionary to dissect your written articulation! 😂 I agree with everything that you say about human and wildlife conflict. It’s a sad and concerning topic and I always hope that a good balance is eventually reached!
      Every morning I enter the park and that fresh air hits my face while I’m scanning for cats or filming them, or interpreting their behaviour I can feel in my heart that I’ve found my calling. Even on the bad days there’s a silver lining to what I do! And I will do this until I physically can’t!

    Zaza has eight younger brothers , all love him. This is probably zozo thats with him now . Both close in age , then zoza third oldest and a fourth one in this age but i cant remember his name . Zaza was a great help to the lionesses in taking down prey. After his father's attacked him the lionesses went searching for him. His younger brothers often are seen together with him and zozo. They will be a force in the future as his brothers comeof age.

      Appreciate the info Gene thank you! Looking forward to watch their journey. Although they will probably end up somewhere else far from their natal territory in the nearby future. Will enjoy the time with them while it lasts.
      Of all nine brothers and half brothers they would probably fragment into 2-3 per coalition. Maybe not.
      They will without a doubt propagate their genetics far and wide when they become pride males for those who survives one day!
