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.

True. Miss Scar and Limper.
They were both skinny and unhealthy yet regal looking male lions, even thought Limper barely had any mane.
I didn't follow Limper's decline, but I know that he tried to help his brother Skorro Jr to defend the territory, even in those conditions he did most of what was in his power to.
I hope the Othawa girls, daughters of the Tumbela males prosper. They have remained alive to this day even with a premature nomadic life, resilient lionesses, just like their fathers.
The two current Othawas are quite possibly the youngest lions I can ever recall being set out on their own. When they lost the third sister early on, it was really worrisome. But these two have thrived in the face of the highest levels of adversity anyone can imagine, like the Tsalala as well. A truly amazing pair, for sure.
