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.

The female presenter was also very confused about one of the subadults, she mentioned the 3 older males are between 3 - 3.5 years but mistaken one of them for being the second Xikukustu, because of his body size despite his very mohawkey mane.
The oldest male can’t be that young, he’s way too big, and by the way the male she was on about, wasn’t even the oldest one either. Took a screenshot of the male she was on about, so u lot can see his real nice size, cubs are looking really healthy too, must’ve ate recently.

that YM that is older than the others is the one runored to possibly be the son of the Girrafe Male and 7th BDYM of that generation.
Ye I know, I was just surprised about the ages she had given, especially as she herself didn’t know much about the lions to begin with so clearly got her information from somewhere else. Even Sandringham listed him as a subadult male in their count, eventho he’s very clearly fully grown.
