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.

We are talking about events happening in the wild bush, the standards of evidence you are demanding are too high for this. Footage/photos of stuff like this are hard to come, we can establish a chain of events with decent accuracy on what probably happened.
1. There is audio evidence of very intense fighting between multiple male lions.
2. We know that the mapogos were in the area and on the hunt for the newly dominant majingalanes.
3. Three mapogos head back west and a week or two later pretty boy appears with a bent spine and without rasta.
It's LIKELY that rasta and pretty boy were involved in that confrontation and rasta didn't make it out. Given the events that took place before rasta's disappearance, its quiet likely that this is what PROBABLY happened. Maybe rasta was poached but it's unlikely. In dreadlocks case we have zero evidence of a confrontation, his sudden disappearance suggests he was poached. I am just being objective here.
