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.

So I guess he died around the time he went missing. Most likely his body just gave out and the hyenas were the first to find him.
If I was a betting man, hyenas found DM clinging to life in the bushes and finished him off. Thats when the Rangers probably heard the commotion. I don't think DM passed 1st, then hyenas found him. Just my own speculation of this, not that it matters 1 bit, just thinking out loud.
He was really struggling to breathe in one of the videos so I do think he passed before being found. He was internally hurt badly but he wasn't absolute skin and bones on the outside so I don't think hyenas would have gone after him just yet.
