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.

James also said it was reported that on the 24th May Mohawk was seen with the Southern Avoca male AND the Nkuhuma male. Not sure how accurate that is but there you go.

This is interesting. Mohawk might have already met with the Southern Avoca. If this is true I wonder why they would have split. I would have had thought them knowing each other and they are nomads they would have stayed around each other. Now Mohawk is not with his sons and he was with the Nukhuma male lion.

Considering what his older brother the S. Avoca looks like, he looks great.  It's just interesting to see him alone now, and back with his girls.

Mohawk playing with fire, stay safe boy!

Nice update to the thread title btw. Will be good to keep track of the young Nkuhuma males as they attempt to establish themselves in Kruger. It will be interesting to see what the future holds for them.

Pretty sure a few of us still believe it’s possible he’s alive yet we gotta accept it for what it is. Until / unless he turns up, he’s gonna seem to have passed.
