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.

That depends what someone exactly mean by "appear on the scene". They have made their first takeover in 2006.

That he wasn't mentioned as leader is not the same as claiming he wasn't.

Or that was just random sequence.

For what I could see this post is mostly based on Nkhoro rangers relation with some additions from from the guy who made that post. I did acctually made post (https://wildfact.com/forum/topic-lion-tales?page=14) based fully on Nkhoro rangers realations and it seems noone acctually knew where other 4 Majings were exactly by that time.

T, indeed, for a long time he was almost part of the group as evidenced by a recent video, to protect the cubs, and certainly he was, and remained, the least dominant, it is true that they followed him to Elephant plains, but it was not he who led the herd;
Idk what/who exactly dragged Mapogos to the east back then. Mr T at beggining of the reunion was summisive for some time, through he did not remain least dominant.

We can only specculate on what exactly happened to Dreadlocks. Onone acctually knows exactly what happened to him.

Welll.... they manage to severely injure one of the Mapogos without getting serious injures themselfs so I would say the battle was won by Selatis.

You suggest there was some 1vs1 between Mak and Limper? There wasn't. Also the story of competition between two last Mapogos and two KNP males is quite long so it should be case of mentioning it within the post, but to basscly make separate post on it.

Again speculation. We bassclly just know he dissapeared.
Do you have reports of Mr.T being submissive when he returned? I'd like to read them. Or if you don't, how do you know he was submissive?
