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 the bond is so much stronger with lionesses. I've mostly read and seen videos and pics, for example; Nsuku in Sabi Sands, Lipstick in the Mara, Cesare Notch; that they become a burden and either get bullied off the kill (most rescent Scar Tumbella) or left behind and starve. Sucks but that's how it is.
I guess it depends on a lot of factors. Lions can be heartless and indifferent too, as they say, yet there are exceptions. I was just sensing a lot of negativity in the posts and although these people know their lions very well, I hold out hope until the end for my own sake.
Lion-watching is definitely not for the faint of heart because the truth may be a bitter pill.
