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.

Well, RRM is prob not confident as OM and he is very aware of potential danger, because he had very rough life, he is on the run with his 2 mothers and 2 sisters since he was not even 2 yrs old, and later on in nomadic phase he was getting chased on almost daily basis by Avoca/Giraffes and Orpen males, he even lost his partner from the hands of other males , all those things which OM didn't experience..
He is very aware that he as a lone male cant win any fights where he is outnumbered , so he never tried to face his enemies Orpen males, he numerous times just run away, even in the most recent encounter before demise of Orpens, he just run away, he didn't try to protect his pride and cubs, because he knows that he cant win 2vs1..
Because of that RRM and OM are very different and uncomparable caracters, RRM is survivor,and even as lone male, he will prob not get killed and will live long life, while OM only knows one thing, to be "the king" no matter what.
