  • Born in 2007, the two amazing brothers now in their 17th year, have led a savage life in the wilderness of Botswana. Their life has been well documented, as they ruled the Savuti's famous Marsh Pride for many years. Defending against intruders to the death, wars with the big Hyaena clans, and epic buffalo hunts. They were ousted by their three sons, and now seek refuge along the floodplains of the Mababe Depression...We spent some time with these Legends.....

    Reminds me of my brother & sister growing up ! So cool 😊! Fishing up our second home log cabin a half hour from Yosemite valley but with no influences of the crowds and super low key , Walk and walk !! Up behind nothing for so far I never found out and I go … Clear water in the Merced with wild trout , Us three towheads swimming constantly , And a golf course near , Low key is the description , Since five golf and fishing and some hunting , The Land Rover or ? Reminded me of my first vehicle a Jeep CJ-5 Renegade two with overdrive and winch going through where I was stupid to attempt , But I was watched over fortunately! You guys are having a blast and the pics to movies my dad made were so sentimental, Sekekama and Torn Nose I always followed as many in Africa , Many Kings left us this year 😢, Glad their still hanging in there ! The Charles Dance National Geographic may be corny to some but I found it differently entertaining ! Being a Californian going back in lineage to the mid 1800’s as I was told , It’s hot too , But cold too in the Sierras , Thanks 🙏 for u to our update on the boys and the AWESOME PRODUCTION YOU CREATED !

    They were actually ousted by Tsunami and Gaam, not their sons. Tsunami and Gaam are the current rulers of the Marsh pride.

    No one expelled them from Savuti, they left Savuti of their own free will, and the pride of Marsh was taken over by their former enemies, Tsunami and Gaam, their four sons in the north, not in the south.

      That’s not true, they was forced out by their nephews the mababe males , they choose to leave rather outright go to war with their nephews being much younger and powerful then them so they went east of savuti where they control a small pride of 3 adult lionesses and 3 new cubs recently sired by the two old kings
