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.
Was watching that. Was the subadults of the Talamatis and they mostly all had some evidence of being in a scrap fairly recently; definite claw and bite marks, nothing too serious although the tail area of one of the sub adult males and the paw of the other male were quite swollen as well. Imo definitely an altercation with other lions. I didn't see Dark Mane get up and move but from the angle of the camera he looks in much the same condition as the pics from yesterday so still no meal for him and these sub adults as yet.
Where the other adult lionesses are is anyone's guess. Would not surprise me if these are now breakaways with DM following suit as he has no other option. Would explain the scuffle marks and generally poor physical condition of these lions. That's just my rather random speculation , anyway.
