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.

This what you posted is more likely from horn.

It was just example on you statement that S8 injury is "too seriuos" for lion fight, while Mfumo almost lost an eye and had huge gash in a mating right fight, with his brother.
Lions can easily rip each others face off.

Same pattern as S8 injury, just S8 is more deeper and over the eye.
Watch more closely s8 injury, he has gash beneath his eye aswell, if that was horn, it would pierce his eye out.
And he has cut over 2nd eye aswell.

Lions bite and then pull/rip, like pitbulls, thats how you get injury like this and not just a hole.
