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.

Quick question guys, well two questions.If the majingis crossed path with the young tsalala males, will they recognize each other and not chased each or even if they recognize each other they will chased each other?
has anyone documented that a lion coalition ousted their own fathers? I read notch was bullied by his sons but they were on the same coalition.
Cheers!
It's up for debate if they recognize each other but they will treat them as total strangers. Something like this happened very recently when the four mahngeni females killed the original tailless lioness, the same lioness that had broken away from the tsalala pride to raise them by herself when the majingalane males took over northern sabi sands in 2010. The tsalala males and majingalanes will be at each other's throats if a territorial dispute ever arises.
Mhangeni's had 9 growing cubs during that time and they did not allow Bibi to feed with them. (Bibi left them probably only an year ago and also frequently seeing each other)
They would have recognized their Aunt, but when it comes to dinner table for lions it's always growling and fighting.
