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.

I really wish this boy and Mohawk could get together for a bit, but not sure it will ever happen.  I am not even sure where Mohawk is at this point.

It appears so to me, as well. He had a really rough go there, for a bit, causing tremendous stress, perhaps this is a sign that things are improving for this aging warrior. I hope that is the case.

There was probably a bit of an adjustment period, along with the stress of being displaced from his territory and losing his brother. Good to see him bounce back a bit.

Not sure. Let's see if one of the experts in the territory of Sabi Sands will tell us.

I do believe they are both in the north, but the north is... vast.

This might be the closest they’ve been to eachother since they where around 4 in a half years old hopefully the nkuhuma pride makes a kill and it’ll attract the southern avoca and Mohawk
