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.
Styx lionesses with their seven cubs around a kudu kill which they made. The mothers appeared to be at their wit's end with their procession of cubs. After feeding, especially on a meal that this kudu bull would have been, it is common that lion will lie down and sleep... This was not possible for these mothers whose relentless cubs attempted to feed every time they tried to rest their heads. 24/05/2021.

In the early hours of the morning, the four N'waswishaka male lions were seen patrolling down a road. As they moved, they all began to vocalise. Eventually one of them stopped and turned back to see how far the rest of them were behind.
Doesn't it look like the oldest and the youngest are the mothers of these 7 (just based on these pics)? If so, hopefully the middle lioness has cubs stashed or on the way too.
