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.

Yeah, I agree. I am also still worried about ximhungwe daughter. Very concerning..
I feel bad for her mother, being all alone.
Gotta say, most of Majingilane males sons weren’t so succesful, but they sired way more daughters and granddaughters that reached adulthood. So their bloodline is much stronger then most people think.
The Daughters of the Othawa male are doing well. I hope they extend the Majingilane bloodline by mating with other males.
If she is seen now, she probably is still alive. As otherwise she would be scattered bones by now.
The risks lies in time.
The ximhungwe lioness is around 7 years old. So that gives her at best 2 or 3 litters. The next one is probably going to small as well seeing she is nomadic and there is a good chance it will be a male. So the pride will be threading the needle at this point.
Avery impressive looking Plain’s Camp Male gazes at a few hyenas in the distance, who had come to investigate the smell of zebra carcass that these males were responsible for.

Plains Camp at Rhino Walking Safari
"Introducing the newest members of the Plains Camp family, so tiny its hard to spot them in the long grass. The 2 Plains Camp lionesses were spotted with 4 cubs roughly 1 month old. Their father, one of the Mantimahle males was close by keeping an eye on his pride. #lionsofkruger #plainscamp #rhinowalkingsafaris"
