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.
The Mhangene Pride have continued to be our most viewed lion pride. The two older cubs have now reached five months in age and are doing very well, moving everywhere with the pride.
We were offered an unexpected but incredible opportunity to view the two newest Mhangene cubs when their mother brought them to a hippo carcass at Castleton Dam. One of the other lionesses in the pride also seems to be lactating (potentially pregnant or denning).
The Othawa Pride and Matimba male lion have been found in the western parts of the property hunting buffalo. Although unsuccessful, this pride is always exciting to see.
