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.

That is when dominant males are fathers to young male they are about to kick out. The boy is lucky that Avocas are passive.
"He is very strong and big lion for his age (he was bigger then Mhangeni Big Boy as half a year younger)"
To my eye Mhangeni male was taller. Nkuhuma male is just slightly than lionesses from Nkuhuma pride. I wouldn't say it is a lot for 3 and half years old male.
They adopt NK boy, if they wanted to kill him they would did that immidiately when they came in the first place, they wont kill him now 1 and a half year later for sure,they will just oust him.
Idk what pics where you watching, but since Big Boy came to Nkuhuma pride and to their last sightings together, Nk boy was always bigger then him.
nk boy has the matimba and birmingham blood, the male lion decendends are larger then normal. there was a comparison when the b boys confronted the nk pride and junior matimba was next to one of the b boys and he was just as large or maybe bigger as a subadult.
