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.

Yeah, I don't think Skorro Jr has TB, no signs that I have seen. I believe the recent decline in condition is the culmination of everything that has happened since he was driven from the Othawas. He's lost his brother, lost his pride, been roughed up by at least two different coalitions a couple of times, has travelled great distances alone only to keep returning to WS, has moments when he has been supported by two different prides of females (his daughters, and the Ximungwes), but spent a lot of time by himself as well. Other than NYM who has had a tremendously rough life, I feel Skorro Jr's recent trials have been some of the hardest in Sabi Sands recently.
