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.

I thought the same thing, when he headbutted him. Al (guide who actually named RRM), might be right, RRM is keeping his son around for the added strength. I wish the one son, the one who was the biggest and apparently pops in sometimes, would join them as well, though that is highly unlikely. It would be a repeat of the Notch Coalition.
so "AL" is Alistair....the Manager that if you recall is the husband to the lady that was shot last year.
Tintswalo did indeed give the name. Red Road's mother (White Dot) and Auntie (Bus) and his two female cousins (Blackdot and sister) split as a breakaway from the Birmingham pride.
they Chose to name the The Red Road Pride aftere that road he mentions in the clip. After Red Road gained independence, those same females returned to the Natal pride while our legend boy carried on the name. He's quite an Icon of the region. as the Guest mentioned, one of the most popular and Beloved Lions of the Manyeleti.
I did not realize he was her husband. He was a great guide, always really excited about the sightings, and had great commentary. I was going to mention how I missed his safari commentary. Their new guides are doing a really good job, as well, but, perhaps, with a little less palpable enthusiasm. I do always appreciate it when lodges give the cats names.
this wasnt too long ago so it seems he's still there are the CEO type guy. I guess he does still get out for mayne VIP or those that ask him by name....he's been a fixture there for many many years.
