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.
Sabi Sabi Early this morning we found a pride of lions near an open area as they were on the move trying to hunt some impala that were feeding close by. We followed them for a while when we noticed a Tawny Eagle sitting on a termite mound. One of the females took off and ran towards the eagle and to our surprise, we saw the eagle trying to fly but with something in its claws. As we got closer, we noticed the eagle had killed a newborn impala and it could not fly away with it since it was too heavy. The lioness picked the young impala up and ran away while a male lion was chasing her. She eventually gave up and dropped the kill and the big male who ate the meal alone.

It looks like Mhangni pride with Othawa male are settling for good in Sabi Sabi. I hope Styx pride could fill vacum in Singita as nomadic life deffinitelly does not serve them well. Time will tell.
