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.

Blonde has broken/ displaced foreleg and in 100s of videos on quiet eagle and painted wolf I have seen that. and i can identify it blindly.

Really? Wide-Nose and Mohawk new coalition partners? Impossible, both males are with their brothers. 

This is 100% Blondie and Mohawk.

"The life of this young lioness thus far, currently living a solitary existence, continues to be an incredible storyline written by nature.

This pic was taken right after we witnessed a clan of hyenas overpower her for her hard earned meal. She makes use of a fallen over marula tree to glance back at the scene, before heading down into the Sand River."

These kinds of posts are clogging the thread.  I love the Mapogos as much as anyone, but the last one died almost 10 years ago. 

All nostalgia posts should go into the dedicated thread of the coalition or pride unless they don't have one.  The Split Rock males for example never had a thread dedicated to them so all posts regarding them would be in Lions of SS.

Mapogos, Majingis, Matimbas, etc. all have dedicated threads.  They are all dead.  There should be ZERO posts about them in this thread.  

Nostalgia posts about lions who are still alive should also go to the dedicated threads.  I didn't watch the video, but let's say it contained footage of Auntie Othawa as a cub.  There is now a thread for the Othawa Pride so the post would go there and/or the Mighty Mapogo thread, but not in Lions of SS even though she is still alive.  This thread is 700 pages long.  Please don't clog it up any more than it already is.

"The older plains camp male MAKHUNGA walking along and later Roar I’m so in love with this fella"






Makhunga means "born leader/warrior"

Yes the PC Boys are the same age. Interested to see who named them. I will only use the names if reserve staff were the ones who named them. Otherwise we have another "Nguvu" (skirts for women) situation as well as Amahle, Eorenji and so on.
