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.
"The naming of a newly dependant Leopard is always an exciting time. The prospect of further generations down the line and a chance to follow another remarkable life story.
This is the Makumu male, with Makumu meaning ‘the end’ or ‘at the end’. The reason for this name comes from the fact that this male and his sister were the last offspring of the legendary Tlangisa female, who we believe has passed away.
This male is just under two years old, and is already an impressive size for his age. He looks like he could be a formidable Tom within the Greater Kruger National Park in the years to come."
