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.
Dawn this morning was heralded by the reverberations of lions roaring, emanating from 4 different locations. The distance between 2 of these points was decreasingly rapidly and what followed was but a chapter in the book of lion warfare. 3 lion sightings (2 of which became 1): the Clarendon (MATIMBA) males, Matshapiri males and 1 lioness from the Marthly Breakaway (MHANGENI) pride where involved in a tense drawn out altercation. Who won? It's not clear. Both coalitions had their moments. What was the role of the lioness? This is also open to interpretation but she ended up fighting and then mating with the Matshapiri males. We will share more on this sighting as soon as we can.
