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.

But thats more because they need to hit something to stop an attack. Not to win.
That RRM was mostly attacked in the back but attacking faces himself shows he was largely on the losing end of the fight.
I don't think established lone lions form coalitions like that easily. So it likely wont happen.
Running off two young pride males would be difficult at best for a single male lion. If all three were there...
I think RRM has been thinking about this for awhile and is why he took the Nharu pride down south near Sabi Sands in late January.
So, why in the world did he go over to TB territory recently and lay around? Maybe he wanted to see if they would do anything about it.
I think he's still thinking about all this.
