Bob Junior
Bob Junior has quite a history He was fathered by an equally famous lion called Bob Marley who was named due to his dreadlock and encrusted black mane.
Bob J was born in 2010, this handsome male lion had a luxuriant black mane stretching almost down to his stomach and died on 11.03.2023.
Nicknamed Bob Junior, Snyggve (Jay) was not only a handsome male lion but a dominant male who ruled the Namiri plains with his coalition brother Tryggve (Joel), and Bob’s genes are widely spread in the Serengeti.
Despite his strength and skills, he was outnumbered and defeated by the three younger males and died in his territory.
Bob Junior was a magnificent male lion, iconic and the best-looking lion in Serengeti, loved by guides, photographers, and everyone who visited Serengeti and a get a chance to see him, he always looks like he just stepped out of the saloon.
Bob Juniors legacy will continue to live on, Nature is beautiful and it can be cruel sometimes, but again it’s Nature, new and stronger genes needs to be spread in the natural world.
And to the Lions, it takes another stronger male, or a coalition of males to attack another male to be able to take his territory, pride and pass his own genes.
Nature has prevailed and we have to accept and remember Bob J for his good looks and strong genes as his father Bob Marley(C boy).
