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.

Thankfully he is with 3 kambula girls
I think with his handicap, it’s almost better to keep a lower weight. The larger he is puts more pressure on that rear handicap. A good meal would do wonders of course but he’s walking more comfortable like this?

He is often falling behind his brothers and core of the pride, so he often miss feeding opportunities, or he comes too late.
But thats not the problem, problem is that he is not healthy, he has that "black spot" disease for quite some time now, which prevents him to put weight.
Its only matter of how long he will be able to live with it, before it becomes fatal.

He was alright till March this year.
1 vs 3 fight with gijima males was catastrophe to him.
Well atleast that good there are too many females in kambula pride ( and new girls are continue joining the main pride) hence they will regularly make kills so ubuso will have chance to feed if he misses some.
