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.

He's most likely around Timbavati (with which Thornybush shares an unfenced border). The reserves west of Thornybush (Kapama, Karongwe, Tshukudu etc) are fenced off from the rest of the Greater Kruger National Park.

Red are Xikukutsus and yellow Giraffe male.
He was in south Thornybush, and they say he moved off with part of the pride, but where? , he cant go north because theres Xikukutsus pushing into his territory further south, very strange..

Also @Potato, is this news recent?

According Lions of Timbavati FB information that was given by Darrel Camden-Smith...
The Giraffe male and the Black Dam Pride have moved off into a pivate land 3 months ago (but they haven't mentioned that was a neigbouring reserve.)

Kapama is fenced as far as I am aware, but perhaps they could find some gap in a fence.
