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.

This Birmingham male and Ntsevu lioness were found mating early one morning. Lions will mate between 4 to 7 days and roughly every 20 minutes, and given that all the females who recently gave birth seem to have lost their cubs, it is most likely that the majority of the lionesses in the pride will be mating aga
Despite them giving stability to the prides the Birminghams haven't had much luck with cubs
They have 7 cubs with the nkuhumas, 5 with the styx, and 10 with the torchwood pride. Mange destroyed a couple litters with the styx and white cell disease killed a couple of the nkuhuma cubs. I would say they have an exceptional survival rate for their cubs, barring disease the birminghams have been quite successful I think.
