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.

Scar Tumbella was in a far worse situation than just the normal fights about food though. He was so far down the social ladder no lion just cared anymore about what happened to him. He just became the groups punching bag.
Fights may also look severe, but they have a good control over how much damage they do in a attack. So if severe wounds are confirmed, its not likely from fights within the coalition.
Lions fight all the time afteral. They would be extinct by now if they seriously hurt eachother over minor stuff.
The main issue is just that we still have no good picture of what's going on and need some actual photos and videos of the lions involved.
And not someone's interpretation of what they think they saw.
Its easy to confuse some minor scratches as big wounds in the excitement about there being a fight. Just as easily as it is to look past them and declare a animal to be uninjured.
