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.

No photographic evidence, but Elephant plains reported 5 males on the 10th of November

"Nkuhuma subadualts lions having a lazy morning and Avoca dark mane 50m apart from each other shirley's property"




Was mentioned on drive this morning by Ale the wildearth guide, she spoke to Deon at chitwa and he mentioned two of the Nkuhuma boys got sick of DM and had a tussle with him, he reported dark mane was on his back submitting,

I guess that'll be his MO from now on, he'll shadow them while showing submission and as soon as they make a kill he'll pop up beside them, "We did it guys".

Well, he is doing similar with Talamatis, but Talamatis know him and have bond with him so they are tolerating him.

I know I keep worrying over the subs....I keep asking around and they all keep telling me only 4 boys are present (I asked about the last report saying 5 and was told that one of the males might have been Mohawk).   I think this is something to monitor....I hope im only being paranoid.

regarding DM, yes....hes basically now going to be living out his remaining period like this.   not strong enough to become dominant or to fend alone,,,,but willful enough to force himself onto these groups.

I bet that DM is going to do what you just said my friend. 
Then, while eating DM will put aside his submissive personality to become more aggressive until the carcass is consumed Lol .

Ohhhhhh my God.
That's fantastic.
That's the first time I am seeing young males are named individually ( no individual names were given to gijima).

So how u are deciding this is N1.
Because he is oldest/most developed among 5??
