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.

Not sure what you mean.

6 years.
Sorry, I was being factitious a bit. It's really amazing how well documented this area (Sabi Sands) seems to be now, and just 15 years ago, depending on where you source the information from either the Mapogos killed 30 or 40 lions, 100 lions, or maybe 500 lions... LOL
Kinky Tail died at like 8 or 9 years old, and I thought they were 5 when they rolled in. Yes, they held the West for longer, but I was more speaking of the entire north as they essentially held for a pretty short time.
Again, I am not being argumentative, and I was more just reading back on all the lions that some people think they killed and then reading the really good post from Mapokser and the thought came to me that they must have just killed women and children.
My wonders always go around what would have happened if they remained a strong 6 without the split, and the shame of Dreadlocks being picked off by humans. Some people even believe that Rasta was poached, but that is the great mystery of the Mapogos... what happened to Rasta.
