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, those are Orpens offspring.

Scar was seen mating 3 months ago, so if females did concieve they should gave birth around now and we wont see the cubs for around another 2 months.

One female gave birth in February to Junior and Buddy's cubs. But it was said she only had 1 cub. 
So either they were wrong and she had more, or this is a different female with Orpen male cubs

They look a bit small to be older than 8 months, their size would match February 2021

Whaat? Oh man. Thank you my friend. 
Do you have any info on when these two cubs were born? Or a link? They started mating with Orpen Males around August, Junior died in the start of December.

As I said, i think 1 Mbiri cub died, he was seen in very thin condition, alone with female, not one of those 2,but i cant remember when it was, it might be that cub you posted (its hard to keep track of all these cubs in all those prides..)

Nice one. Thanks bud. It truly is very difficult. Thanks for your assistance. 

@Tonpa  and thank you for your images and clarification. 
It seems we only have two Orpen male cubs now.
