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.

In my opinion, there is nothing wrong with NYM's reputation as a potential coalition partner for any young male. Especially not for any past circumstances.
He and big boy were forming a nice bond with one another and were often seen together, grooming & reaffirming. They even had one another's back at a time. I definitely do not think he refused to join big boy or rejected him as a partner. NyM was still spending time with his natal pride and his Mother at the time too.
If Big Boy did not tragically die when he did, they both very likely would have departed the area together and started their journey as a nomadic coalition.
As per Styx male, that is clouded in mystery. But the wigns point to a freak incident. Caught in the wrong place and severed an artery.
I think our boy's good in the coalition partner field. He's just had very bad luck thus far.
