I'm desperately trying to find out whether I got to see 'my' Mr. Handsome from Nossob again on our last trip. But the photos I have to compare to aren't totally informative. :slap: So I would like to ask all of you crazy KTP lovers (I'm allowed to say that - I'm crazy myself :lol: ) to please post some photos here, if you got some of the Nossob Brothers. Pretty please? :mrgreen:

*edit* Oh, and I have been throught the Lions of the Kgalagadi thread several times now, but even though there are some photos of them, I'm still not sure yet. :doh:

Thank you, frisian! :gflower: That was basically all that I needed. :thumbs_up:

A beautiful photo regarding the affection but the both of them
don't look all too happy nor too healthy. :? Mr. Handsome looks
as if he was limping? (Right hind leg)

Where did you take this photo? Just outside Nossob?

Now with that photo telling me with 99% certainty that I
did not capture Mr. Handsome nor his brother in October
at Nossob waterhole, I wonder if it is possible that there
are more or less 4 adult males in the greater area.

Does anybody have any information regarding that?
Could it be that the Nossob brothers were dethroned by
some younger males?
