Sadly the well known Mara lion Jesse has died today after a fight with the Enkoyonai males in the Mara North Conservancy. He will be missed by us all.
Full Update from the Mara Predator Conservation Programme as follows:

RIP Jesse, 2011- 24/07/2023
We are saddened by the loss of the famous nomad male lion Jesse. The Mara North Conservancy (Masai Mara, Kenya) (MNC) rangers alerted us of a male lion who was badly beaten and succumbed to his injuries some hours later, and our team could quickly respond to the scene and ID him as Jesse.
Jesse was born in the Cheli pride in MNC and MPCP first got to know him when he was still a youngster within his pride. We estimated his birth to be in early 2011. Jesse and his brother Frank left the Cheli pride in 2014, and we were the first to document the duo taking over the Offbeat pride in May 2014, after a very short dispersal period both in time and space. Jesse and Frank successfully raised one set of offspring during their pride tenure, and although all their sons have either died or gone missing, their daughters are successfully continuing the Offbeat pride. Jesse had to vacate the Offbeat pride when Frank went missing in 2016, forcing Jesse to begin a nomadic life and lived as a nomad until his death. He was seen several times in Naboisho and Olare-Motorogi conservancies, and the National Reserve. Jesse eventually ventured back to MNC towards the beginning of 2023. He ended his days where he started as a pride male, in MNC’s Offbeat area, after a fatal fight with the current Offbeat males, the Engoyanai males.

About Rob The Ranger Wildlife Videos:
The purpose of the channel is to show what it is like to experience seeing wild animals on an African safari. Nature Documentaries are often highly edited to tell a story, wildlife safaris are not, and the idea here is to show the wildlife sightings the way they were seen. Safari tours in Africa are generally suitable for all ages and this channel can be considered an educational channel about incredible nature, some scenes in the nature videos may be more graphic than people are used to but this is the reality of nature and is what you would see if you were present on such a safari in person. Safaris in Kenya, South Africa, or any other African country are an unrivalled experience for anyone with a passion for nature, wildlife photography, and travel. Hopefully the animal videos on this channel can provide a glimpse into what the nature experience is like and encourage more people to take a wildlife safari one day.
