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.

Hard to believe: if so then the Sand River male certainly would have been driven off.
If the Mhangeni males haven't already taken over the pride, they are very close; in fact, they already beat up and chased away from the pride the young Sand River male (see the reply #361).
However, with the new males in Kirkman's Kamp area (for example the Mantimahle males), it will be much more difficult.
Even the KK's rangers don't know exactly what's going on. The lion dynamics was hard to follow lately. But one of the Sparta males hasn't seen for weeks, so it's out of question a take over by them.
