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.

what happen torchwood male his half brother ?
That's what has been in my mind lately. Ever since the Torchwood Young Male veered up north into the Timbavati area, there is suddenly no information on him at all. It's been about a month now or thereabouts? At least a few weeks.
The mystery males is likely to come from the Imbali pride because a sub-adult from the pride has similar whiskers to him. This information comes from the lions of manyeleti thread

He is in Kruger, latest info was that BYM chased him into Kruger..
Kruger is a notorious information black hole. The Othawa subadults also disappeared there several weeks ago. So It may be a while till you hear from them again.

He moves quick doesn't he? lol
I still have doubts if it really is the young Nkuhuma due to the quality of the image, another doubt is if this is related to post #7219 where the young imbali / mluwati was seen watching another male
At this point Nkuhuma acts like a curse to other males, I am not sure I want him to move on into another coalition already. Or Mhangenis are the curse, after all all of Big Boy an co., Othawa and Styx had something to do with them, although it seems they did not cause Styx's demise, it was just their kill orginally.

The othawa male was a single lion in the territory of two large and experienced Birmingham male lions with a large pride. The only thing that happened there was he made a poor choice to challenge them. It was unfortunate the Styx male died the way he did but Injuries can happen at any time in the life of a wild lion. Curses and superstitions had nothing to do with it.
