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.
Shishangaan Males (Casper and bros) didn’t become territorial until 6/7 years of age and they didn’t receive half as much hate and criticism (from certain individuals) as the Kambulas even though they were also a four strong coalition with the numbers advantage over other males. In fact most people simply accepted they were just later than average to develop and were pleased when they finally managed to take hold of a pride and territory.
I don’t disagree Kambulas have failed to achieve their potential so far and have displayed some strange behaviour but it’s not as if we are all witnessing something we’ve not seen before. Just hope K4 recovers from this as it would be a real shame to lose their most impressive member at such a critical moment for them.
