@angelbakhsh: ORKIRIKOI THE MIGHTY TANK OF THE MAASAI MARA My beautiful Orkirikoi, with your powerful frame, dark mane and that unmistakable little “haircut,” I could recognise you anywhere. Born around November 2018 into Kenya’s Marsh Pride, Orkirikoi is believed to be a son of Chongo, one of the legendary Bila Shaka, or Six-Pack, males. He grew into an imposing lion whose size and presence earned him the nickname “the Mighty Tank.” Alongside his coalition partner, Oloborani, he established himself with the Survey Pride, fathering cubs and defending their home. After Oloborani disappeared, Orkirikoi continued alone, carrying the responsibility of holding his place in a landscape crowded with rival males. Pressure from the Kaskaz males and encounters with the Black Rock males brought difficult chapters, injuries and periods away from his pride. Yet he continued to survive and adapt. His strength has been witnessed beyond territorial encounters. In June 2025, conservation researchers documented him successfully hunting a buffalo bull entirely on his own, showing the patience and power this remarkable male possesses. And I feel a kindness in him that touches my heart. At different times, he has been seen walking beside Kingi, a male from the Salas breakaway, and Olonyore, associated with the Survey area. Two males from different backgrounds have shared his company, and those moments make me feel there is a gentle side to this magnificent boy. #lion #maasaimara #animals # #wildlife #africa Credit: @sergiowildlife7 & @olkinyei.mara
