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.
Everyone knows the white lions of Ngala and Satara, but ten years ago two white females were born to the Giraffe Pride (and previously the Ross Pride).

"Both white sisters reached adulthood. On top, they are mating with the Triology male and on the bottom photo, a lioness is with the Mapoza Male."

"The two sister also had cubs. Although this litter didn’t survive, these two showed us that white lions can indeed lead very successful lives in the wild."

"The two sisters eventually died due to the ongoing lion warfare in their area."
