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.

And disappearing without a trace is part of that.
Anyway.
I think we need to keep in mind that if both the attacks on Gore and Widenose went differently, they would be down to two. And as amateuristic as people may call it. Picking of the members one by one is a very viable strategy. So I think the Nwaswitshakas coming out on top today was more down to luck than strategy.
Them being split up among multiple prides severely played against them. Had those males ran into the prides. Things would have gotten very ugly with only Gore there for protection. And if these new males keep pressurising them in the south, forcing the Nwaswitshakas to stay there as a group. It will leave the Kambulas vulnerable again.
The next couple of weeks we will see what strategy they will take and how this will affect the various prides under their control.
The Kambula with the cubs might have more breathing room for a while.
