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.

Although no evidence, Buddy first emerged around Orpen, he came from the east or north of Orpen Gate from Kruger, as there was no track of him from west (Timbavati, Kaserie) or south (Manyeleti, Sabi Sands). He was born approx around 2012-13, vast area east of and around Orpens at that time was controled by young and up and coming 9 Skybeds. Also he is very similar to Skybeds in face, especially "twin"with 1 if the males which become territorial further towards Satara. So there is some clues for that, but no way to prove it.

Skorro was born in Skorro pride around 2008-09, there is no track of Skorro pride that far, but they emerged around Orpen Gate few years later. Skorro pride might even be the same pride as from where Skybeds came, or a breakaway/related to them, as that pride disappeared.
Territorial males in that area around Orpen Gate at 2008/09 , where Old Skybed males. Skorro is also similar to old Skybeds in face (which obiviously doesnt prove anything, but seeing 2 lions be similar, who came from the same area, its more likely they are related then no).
Im not saying and claiming that this is 100% true, as obiviously not enough evidence, im just saying it is likey or a speculation.
