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 he is eating with them now does not mean he is going to adopt the subs as his own, join a coalition with Skorro or is working on a comeback to be the king again like half the lion community seems to believe. The next time he meets them may be far less friendly. If he recovers that is.
The wild is a harsh place. Its under no obligation to play favorites. One day you win and the other days you lose.
I am being pessimistic becouse all things concidered, there just isnt much to be positive about.
Nor am I obligated to close my eyes to the negative impacts a lion may have.
