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.
Lions: the Fourways pride have been trailing a herd of buffalo, moving south through Flockfield and into Charleston. They are still without one of the lionesses. We can only speculate as to her whereabouts but believe she may have 'taken one for the team' in luring male lions away from the cubs. The Eyrefield lionesses have spent their time in northern Charleston also in close proximity to a herd of buffalo- unfortunately we now fear the worst for their remaining 2 cubs. The 2 Avoca males have been in the company of a lioness from the Kambula pride on our airstrip. Last night we witnessed a fascinating but gruesome ordeal when the other 5 Kambula lionesses caught and repeatedly mauled a hyena close to Main Camp. The 3 young males from the Marthly pride continue to spend a lot of time along the Sand River in Charleston.
