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.

His confidence must currently be off the charts.
It's like he's from the future and he's not afraid because he knows what's going to happen
Jokes aside, he's becoming a living legend. I hope things continue to go in his favor.
I was concerned for him, for quite awhile, wondering how damaged his psyche was after the bashings Tyson laid on him. Wondering if he could hunt with his injury, could he run away if cornered by a coalition, etc... It was obvious from the start that he was going to be a very large male, but all that size does little for him if he has no confidence.
Since then, I believe he has put most, if not all, of those concerns to bed, showing he can kill kudu by himself, and protect it from a pack of hyenas, feeding with the Ross Males, then unfased when confronted by an elephant. We don't have the ability to know what his future holds, but it could be a really bright one if he plays his cards straight.
