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.

Looks almost like a divet got taken out, sort of akin to SN Majin.

That trait runs in the family.   Torchwood Male of Matimba (Fourways Prtner) Also has a smudge albeit smaller.

So, that is just discolored hair in that area? I had no idea such a thing could be hereditary. One of my favorite things about WildFact, I literally learn something new every day, from our great community.

3rd male was very skittish, there is 0 photos of him in Sabi Sands.

My opinion is that he got spooked by Ndhzengas, run away and never come back to search for his partners.

They might not be partners for long, so bond might not be there for 3rd to be attached to other 2.

I dont think he was killed by Ndhzengas.

criollo2mil, Thank you.

First sign of S8's weakness. Or I missed anything else that occurred before? (I know there was a report once that DM and his sons attacked him. Could be true but that was an undetailed report with no evidence).

Seems so. It has to come to an end at a certain point. But incredible he managed to be a force this long.

As far as i understand, this happened as S8 tried to overtake their carcass.

This is not a takeover attempt of S8's territory by BDM's, for now.

Where this happened is somewhat of border between these 2 parties.
