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.

Any confirmation from other sources?
i thought someone posted that it wasnt a snare but a purcupine quil?
Yes, that was in the Charleston Males thread.
so it was a quill and he isn't dead? where's tshokwane he can probably clear this up?
I have absolutely no idea. The object protruding from his back looks like a porcupine quill, but at the same time his mane looks a bit ruffled up with sections of his neck showing. That instagram post is from someone who as far as I could tell is not in SS and I have yet to read the news anywhere else.
