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.

If the Ross males are present, it's doubtful BYM is going to be anywhere close. Such an inopportune time for this to be happening, when it comes to BYM. The sub males are not old enough to leave yet, and he might well be too old to remain with the whole pride much longer, at least so long as the Ross males are nearby. He struck out a few months back, not sure if driven or if he simply decided to go on a walkabout on his own. Regardless, he immediately ran into the Mbiri males, who were on a kill. He sat off in the brush and watched them, and they were, of course, focused on their meal, but that should serve as the perfect example of the dangers he faces if he is forced to strike out on his own. With his injury, even with his tremendous size, he could not possibly confront multiple foes at once, nor could he hunt for himself either. When BYM returned from his walkabout he was battered by Tyson, who kept a constant eye on him for several days, it was a very tense situation.
