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.

There is a feeling of excitement that fills the air when hearing his roars envelop the night sky. He is unknown to us. Unlike most, he is not well habituated to vehicles. It takes time and sensitivity to calm his edge. Slowly, he lets us into his world and what a magnificent specimen he is. No one can establish from where his lineage comes. Will he rival the old River Pride males to claim the Jacaranda Pride? The numbers wouldn't say so, but his strength may give him the upper hand. He doesn't appear to have a coalition partner making it impressive that he has survived up to this point. That, though, is the beauty of being a part of an open system wilderness. Everything is unpredictable. We might never see him again, or he could establish himself as the new dominant male in the area. Time will tell.
He could fill the vacum in the arena left by the Skorro males since Skorros seems nowdays to fully focus around their new pride - Myambula and left Western pride behind. Anyway it is always nice to see new face around.
