I know its meaningless debate, i even said it myself that needs to stop,but i needed to point this out.. 

Whats the point of him claiming one thing, and then he literaly himself posts a post which
contradicts his claims? This just blows my mind..

I agree, but i wont stay away if somebody is saying false info,rewriting history etc..

But whatever..

My point was mainly concerning the part of discussion about which lion is "warrior" and which isn´t. That discussion started to be absurd because it´s so subjective matter and there is no authority who could define it. For sure there are some more courageous lions than others but it´s a different thing. Praising some individual shouldn´t be any reason to demean some other. Lions don´t need to prove anything for people. They are wild animals living in ruthless and unforgiving environment as everyone, who are interested about lions, should know. It´s a pity to see how some posters disrespect some lions while praising others, I personally don´t understand it at all. They all do their best after all.

So what comes to facts, naturally when seeing something what is wrong, it´s ok to post and tell what is wrong and based on what.

But then again, when there is controversial information it´s good to understand when some issue is such, that impossible to be 100% sure.

When talking about age and some ranger saying somewhere, that "he is 5 years old". It´s not something what could be used as 100% conclusive just like that. Let´s say, that some lion cub was born 4th of June 2005. Then some ranger answer to some person asking age January 2010 "how old is he?" This ranger can think in his mind quickly "hmmm.... he was born sometime 2005..." then he writes that "he is 5 years old", while in reality most people would say that he is 4 years old.

Same ranger can be asked December 2010 that how old is that lion and after quick think he replies "5" and this time he was right even though lion was almost an year older than when he was asked the same thing last time.

Then some other ranger can say a month later, that "he is around 6 years old"

These things are so obvious, when looking at these debates that everyone should notice those instead trying too hard to win the debate, no matter what. And this wasn´t now meant to you @Tr1x24, you have been a good poster. Reply
