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.

For the Ginger Mantimahle injuries/limp he did got it when he had a scuffle at a kill with his brother and Torchwood Pride, last seen at Buffelshoek.
For Eorenji seems like he did chase someone but guide said it to be SBDM as he is near where Eorenji was.
For the SBDM said swollen face I think he just have a big face compared to his small body size and maybe that is why some guides mistook it for swollen.
For K6 I think it's just his old injuries when he was caught alone presumably by the Veteran Duo as the injury is identical to his injury at that time, just like Tr1x24 had said.
Also SBDM is said to be trailing Southern Avoca and Kruger Male, seems like he wants to be a coalition partner to them and he really needs a coalition partner at this time as the North is quite precarious as even the Ndzenghas is venturing North more frequently and in Southern Manyeleti/Northern Sabi Sands there are the Monwana Boys doubt that they will cause some havoc/chaos but their presence will definitely make the male lions more aggressive, adding them to the many males in the area.
For context here are the males in the area right now/recently sighted are 2 Mantimahle Sons, 4 Kambula Males, Southern Avoca, Kruger Male, SBDM, 4 Monwana Boys, 2 Ndzenghas (frequenting their visit), totaling to 15 male lions, 17 if you count the 2 NK Young Male and NK BA Young Male and for the PCM seems like they are busy in the West and not visiting North for quite some time.
