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.

Incredible. You'd be hard pressed to find a more successful duo, that is for sure, and still holding strong, over two prides no the less.

they no longer control any portion of the Birmingham pride. all adults of that pride have moved over to the Mbiris...there are some sub adult members of the pride who stay near them as they enter into a nomadic period. they do spend some time with the breakaways.

these two legends have done a phenomenal job...have left a very lasting impression in the region

I was not aware that the entire Birmingham Pride had moved to the Mbiris, thank you for providing that update, but it was another bloodless coupe, and I am happy for that. At least they do still have the Breakaway Pride to fall back to. Haven't seen or heard much on the Breakaway coalition, or the group with the white male either. Hopefully they are becoming kings elsewhere, and can build a legacy equal to their fathers.

Just today I asked about word on both groups. The white prince and his brothers were apparently not far where the Ross males were seen today….same general area.

Also after what seems like an eternity,word on the breakaways is they were seen at Bateleur Safari Camp this week. Ever since Cristoff stopped sharing update videos theyr sightings have been quite scarce. Maybe we are treated to images soon

The King of beasts for a reason, and you can see that reason for yourself as blood fills the face and paws of the Black Dam male in this incredible video.

If I may ask, why did Cristoff stop sharing his videos and photos? I do hope it wasn't the result of disrespect and negativity on the interwebs. We were getting regular updates on those boys, then it just stopped.

I don’t know why. I’ve asked and never got a response. I had hopes it was only a temporary pause.

That is a real shame. Well, if it was from the things I mentioned, and you happen to speak with him, let him he is always welcome here.

I still think they’re not too far from that territory. It could be they were patrolling the southern boundaries

In order to get to Shindzela they would have to bypass entire Vuyelas territory so the patrolling couldn't be the case here.

It's been many months since there was any news about the male subadults of the timbavati riverpride, right? I'm wondering what happened, they seemed to be old enough to hunt alone to some extent but with so many males around them it could have ended badly
