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.
As for Ximhungwe, I feel for her, but she's not that old, she'll only turn 12 next year.
Now that it seems the Kambulas are settling in the North, the biggest threat to the PCM will probably be removed at least for now, and if the NK + Mohawk are ousted to Kruger, things will look pretty good for the PCM as long as they are not so unlucky to go down due to some hunting accident or disease. I also doubt the PCM will ever leave this territory. They'll probably get 3 new females to mate with ( Ridge Nose & Othawas ) in the next year, and in the next one they'll have the 3 younger Manghenis again.
It's a huge territory too, they have no reason to leave.
I felt bad for the cub that was lost, but maybe in the long run this will be more beneficial for the pride, as it allows the female to maybe have a bigger litter next time.
