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.

He’s got such a beautiful and unique face! Interesting how all the boys have stand out traits and the kambula boys all look extremely similar.
So the Nkuhuma boys have been trying to take over the mantimahl pride? Would they officially get a coalition name?
Yes the Kambula male lions look very similar. I think that is, because the fathers are Nehena, and or Tinyo. I think maybe even most are Nehena sons, and their mothers were also sisters and one lioness is mother to 3 of the 4 Kambula male lions in Sabi Sands. The Nukhuma lions their mothers were Matimba and Birmingham lioness daughters and there were 3 Avoca male lions.
Yeah it's quite easy to tell them apart, the twins we're very similar ( minus the lipscar on one of them)
You got Ridge Nose's Son who is built like a horse and has a very dark mane
Chela's Son who turned out to be a carbon copy of Blondie
And PE's Son who.. yeah he is the other one basicly
Stange that you say the Kambulas are extremly similar, I find quite easy to tell who is who ( maybe K6 and K3 take me sometime to identify who is who )
Yes I agree the Kambula male lions are similar. Three of them have the same mother . The Nukhuma male lions I am not sure if their mothers were all Matimba daughters and Birminghams daughters. Also a reason why the Nukhuma male lions may be so different if one of the Matimba daughters was daughter of the oldest Matimba he was a big male lion not born in the Birmingham pride. It is why the Nukhuma male lions maybe so different.
