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.

I respectfully disagree. Olepelos is the leader of the the 3. I've read from Rangers and guides and people that have seen them that he is usually is the front runner and is always in the mix. Even the videos and pics I see Olepelos is always out front and most aggressive of the 3. That said, dominance is dynamic and all 3 work exceptionally well as a team! They are turning out to be 1 of the most successful young boys out there together with the 3 Rongai Boys up in Naboisho.

could you share these videos because on those that I saw orkitok was the dominant.
on this video olepolos is patiently waiting for orkitok to finish eating before gleaning the leftovers despite orkitok's limp and on another video (that I will try to find) where we see the three of them fighting for some reason orkitok clearly dominates olepolos who flees and osapuk who resists a little but who is also dominated
