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.

Update on the Skybed Male Lions:

Today’s post is a follow up on our most popular blogpost which is the story about the Skybed Coalition, we bring you an update on the Skybed Male lions.


We saw the Skybeds a total of 5 times on different occasions, but the one sighting stood out because it was the first time we saw the most magnificent male lion, in all the times we have been to Kruger we have never witnessed a lion look as big as this one did, he looked exactly as the lions you see on documentaries, before this we always thought lions in the Kruger looked some what smaller in stature compared to ones you see on TV.

Out of the 4 males he was with he was the most impressive, he had a massive mane, and a scar under his left eye and he was all around big compared to his brother,

We instantly fell in love with him and he become our favorite lion of Kruger, and in our eyes no lion could compare to him, even though males such as the Jock males and the Shishangeni males are remarkable lions to see.


Every time we visited the Kruger we made sure to stay at Tamboti so that we could drive up and down on the H7 every morning trying to spot him, unfortunately he would allude us and we weren’t able to see him, the last time he was seen by visitors was early last year.

At the end of April we saw a post on social media showing our beloved lion looking like he was in terrible shape, later on we read an article on Larry Pannell blogpost, which explained how the US photographer spent time with the lion before he took his last breath.

We believe he probably had an injury which didn’t heal and he could no longer keep up with his brothers and the pride because he was only 10 years old, and lions can live between 14-16 years in the wild.


This post is dedicated to our favorite lion, we hope to see another lion which will leave a mark as big as he did.
