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.
@"Majingilane" : quite agree with you. Hyenas, even in big coalitions never compete against a black maned lion. And as concerns Ntwadumela, Dereck and Beverly Joubert related in their book "Hunting with the Moon" that this male lion was rather modest-sized , - according to the male lions standards -, and led the other male, Mandewu, the choice of the females. However, as concerns other predators and big preys (there is a famous photo where we can see it in front of a big elephant) it was merciless and very brave.
