There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Both the Sankai prides and Hammerkop prides seem to be split from the Moniko pride. Why did they split? Are all the original Sankai lionesses daughters of Lolparpit and Olbarnoti? Also when did they split?
You've asked about 1 of the most confusing prides and breakaways around! Haha!!! I am definitely not the one who knows but I can tell you that Sanaki and Sanakai Breakaway Lionesses are from Mohican and Romeo2 but could be from other males. If I am not mistaken Porini lioneses are from L and O. Original Moniko Pride supposedly went extinct a few years ago but then I read this year they might have found lioness from the pride. Too confusing to me honestly. Theres like 2 Hammerkop prides which are Sankai, then there's Moniko-Sankai, Sankai.... Way too much conflicting info. Ill try to find out.
