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.

Junior Matimba, born in Nkuhuma pride in 2012, sired by Matimbas, and his coalition partner named Buddy, his origins are unknown.

I also think this red road male is a brave lion, here some words about him and orpen males in africageographic... 
"It’s been a successful month for the Mbiri Pride, our resident lions, and they have hardly needed to move far from the lodge as they make kills near the riverbed and relax for days until they get hungry again.
The Nharu Pride revealed their cubs to us when we followed them to a kill. There were over 25 hyenas surrounding the kill, hoping to get a piece of the action. But the Red Road male was continually roaring and growling which kept the hyenas back and fearful. But his roaring proved to come back and bite him, as two large Orpen Males were obviously attracted by the sounds and arrived to chase him off.
The theatre of the wilderness is certainly puts on a good show, and we can’t wait to see what the next month has in line for our eager guests."

The legendary Scorro Thanda Impi after the rain at Manyeleti. This may be current, although he is usually seen further east in the Mluwati Concession. Posted by rdelavy, Dec 13, 2019.

What a beast this boy is, his legendary video of running straight into buffalo heard and taking down a buffalo all by himself is one of the most epic things i've seen in lions world, not many lions can/or have the courage to do that..

If their sons Nharu and Mbiri young males will have half the heart of their fathers, they will be great lions.

I don't think so, they also do not report seeing it often so it is unlikely.

Orpen male Buddy gets busy with one of the Koppies females at Manyeleti. Seems like his Jacobson's organ is getting a good workout.
