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.

I was talking about Sabi Sabi / Lion Sands area, which is not that big,Talamatis where also there recently.
Thats 3 new big prides and residental prides Styx's and SP.
And if we count Sand Rivers in the east, thats 6 prides in the south, plus few male nomads, thats way too much lions in such a small area.
I mean there is space for 1 new bigger gruop down there, but not for 3 new big gruops.
Mhangenis and Talamatis will prob return north, Kambula breakaways might stay there, as we can see, they are the strongest with 2 older young males who can dominate other prides who dont have dominant males.
Talamati pride just ventured there on single ocassion. They definitelly should not be taken into account. Mhangeni, Kambula and Sand River prides has only small/smaller part of their territory in the southern sector. By now there and only two small/ medium size prides (Southern and Styx) terrytorial in the southern sector which isn't match and is clearly least populated by lions part of Sabi Sands at the moment.
