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.

We are talking about the time when Styx died (August 2021), Nwalunghus where 5 yrs old then, PC males only just got 4 yrs month before, 1 year is massive difference at that stage.
At that time, mid 2021, Nwalunghus where starting to make noise and where active in Singita and western sector, especially towards Mhangenis, who ressisted because of the cubs. Also seen in western sector, where they most likely attacked Aunty Othawa.
At that time PC males still didnt even acquire NK females and where still pretty much low profile.
So towards late 2021, with PC males starting to focusing northeast towards NK females, if Styx didnt die, its more likely Nwalunghus would establish themselves first in Singita or even western sector against Tumbelas.
Now, how would then dynamic work in early 2022 between Nwalunghus and PC males nobody knows.
Territorial Nwalungus might just chase younger PC males away as far as we know.
At the time of his death, Styx was a beast, he was also more agressive and confident the NK (which prob cost him his life).
But yea, those are all speculations, nobody knows what would happen.
