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.

I know. That's why I said that there is a lot of ways to qualify this. We use a lot of human terms to explain animal behaviours, and that's why we call a lion "brave" or "bravely stupid" when he stand his ground against several opponents instead of running.
What I was thinking is that there are several ways to qualify this. For example, if we measure it from the killing of a rival male, the tape of the four Majingilane killing Kinky tail gets the prize, and people hate them for this, even when the Mapogos themselves were 'guilty' of the same acts all over again in their 5 year reign.
Now, if we talk about the killing of females, sub-adults or cubs, again the Mapogos were known for doing this, at such point were its said that, despite provinding "formidable viewing and photographic opportunities, undoubtedly serving as a huge attraction to a multitude of guests wishing to view and photograph lions of such infamy, but from a species survival point of view, they have done unmentionable damage to the breeding and survival ecology of the lion species in the Sabi Sand Wildtuin, thereby affecting the total African lion population.
Of the original 62 Lions that were present in the Western Sector when they arrived, there are now only 3 origionals left, all belonging to the Ximungwe pride.
