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.

*No intervention at all unless human cause.
*Fast Intervention like in the Masai Mara.
*Or other policy like wait until a week or days if the lion/leopard survive in that time then intervene and treat the said injury.
What you guys think would be the best in Greater Kruger as lion/leopard population is decreasing in the Greater Kruger especially in the Northen part of the Kruger?
The big problem is that Northern parts of KNP are unknown to most of us. It’s hard to track down these lions, and even harder to find injured lions.
If I was to advise them how to fix issues, I would focus on small reserves like Sandringham. It’s much easier to focus on small reserves, first, then say the whole Northern parts of KNP. Get these reserves up and running again, and u get less conflicts between lions in the Timbavati for example, as there’s much more space. Either that, or u can relocate lions in KNP into these small reserves to guarantee their safety. I think it should stick solely to intervention only when the injuries are man made too.
