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.
These sorts of discussions are ultimately meaningless as the lions never line up nicely. Not to mention can vary in weight and build dramatically on a daily basis depending on whether or not they are nomadic or well fed. Making comparisons nearly impossible.
Build is also not much indicative of success. Factors like the numbers and strength of bond between lions in their coalition, confidence, health, experience and lifestyle are far more important. Not to mention the factor of location.
The Tumbellas are having health issues. Of the three that survived nomadhood, Scar died a few months later, Limper is cripple a lot of the time. Leaving only Skorro Healthy. Luckily they have their location working with them, having only one side hostile groups can come from.
The current undisputed kings of Sabi Sands are obviously the N'was. Last year they send the Birmingham Boys running and just recently fend of a serious attack by a new coalition of three. Which if they reunite will probably be the second strongest group in Sabi right now. The rest are mostly coalitions of 2 with several ailing lions among them.
