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.

This is 2/3 time they are doing

I don't know if those are their cubs. But if they're anything like their fathers, they control a lot of land and spend time away from some of the prides where they fathered cubs.

And so, it happens something similar as it happened with Mr.T. The lads come back and think, I never got laid with this chick and so assume the kids aren't theirs.

They must be lacking competition from other coalitions.

But it does go to show are lionesses are completely dependable from males. If the lions are set on killing those cubs, there isn't a lot that they can do.

Notch boys (sons and Grandosns) are impressive in their size, aggression in the way in which they take territory after territory.
But I am worried about inbreeding which is bad for gene pool.
I think majority of the prides are controlled by notch bloodline and many of the females are also sired by Notches.
I hope some new blood will come in and diversify the gene pool.
