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.

He was born in early 2014 in litter of 8 cubs, sired by S. Matimbas.. There where 4 males and 4 females in that litter, 1 cub disapeared until 2015..
Its unknown what happened to his brothers, but they where prob chased away or killed by Bboys takeover in mid 2016..
This male has been lucky to find Fourways pride in 2018 and managed to form a coalition with 2 young Fourways males and they are now formidable force around Leeupan area.

Who are the 2 lionesses flanking HB's son? Is one of them his daughter, who will become the smudge-nosed lioness? Are they all littermates? Or did he have only brothers in his litter?

8 cubs where born around that time to 3 adult Torchwood lionesses.. Idk who is exactly his littermates.
About Smudge Nose lioness..everybody is saying that she is daughter of Matimbas.. But is she? .. I think she might be 1 of the 3 original Torchwood lionesses..
Here photo from May 2018 at Nkorho:

Is that only a 4 years old lioness??
If shes S. Matimbas daughter, now she would be just turning 7 yrs old..
SS from MalaMala video of her from around 9 months, when she would be only over 6 yrs old:

Idk but that to me doesnt look like 6 yrs old lioness, her nose is very black and face starting to become pale, which is often seen on old lionesses..
I think she might be 1 of the 3 (original 4 but 1 died somewhere around 2013) Torchwood lioness and she is prob around 11 yrs of age or so now..

Wish multiple people would somehow confirm her age.

She is one of the 4 original Torchwood lionesses.. By the looks she is only around 2.5 - 3 yrs old then... So now she is around 11.
Is that her? She got her smudged nose later in life then? In another photo, when I looked closely, it appeared that she still had some pink on her nose when it was smudged. The original photo didn't have her name or anything as a description. Hard to say exactly, but not ruling anything out.
