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.
I think i've found 1 of the 2 "unknown" young male lions in MalaMala.

Little cut on the right ear doesnt match, but first photo is 3 months before, so he could get it easly by now,but whisker spots and other scars match, its the same lion.
Unfortunately we dont know if this lion comes from some pride in Mluwati Concession (Hamiltons, Imbali?) or was he just passing by thru that area..
If he/they came from Mluwati Concession, he was most likely ousted by new males in that area, and judging by his age that would meant that he is son of Mluwati males..
