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.

What about this boy still alone?? Thanks!

I have no real proof (I could just ask EP but I'm lazy) but Elephant plains reported 3 unknown male lions in their weekly sightings report on July 23rd. They also posted the weekly reports on their instagram story and on that report they included a picture of him. Who he joined up with I have no clue!

If they do end up running into one another, it will be the first time in awhile since either has faced another single dominant male. Last time S8 did, that I recall was the bloodless coupe, when he took some of the Talamatis from DM.

When that video was first posted on youtube the title was indicating that both were eating a lioness but has been changed to what is now.
Is the source of the video credible?

Not sure bro. However, I read in the comments of the channel that someone told him that it was a lioness, and he ask who ever watching the video to correct him if necessary.

So if there were 15 members present this would mean the two males that had not been there are back???

Full pride compliment was

5 Adult Females
5 Female Subs
4 Male Subs
RRM

If so, that’s great news.
