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.
One of the good things about lockdown is the time that I’ve had to refurbish some oldies. This leopard/warthog interaction goes back to the days when I was working at MalaMala Game Reserve in the 90s. It took this young male ages to kill the warthog and it was stolen by a pride of lions almost immediately that he had killed the warthog. The squealing from the warthog could be heard from a long way off so it was inevitable that lions and hyenas would be attracted to the area.
