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.

On average male lions weigh between 210kg to 250kg , and females between 170kg to 190kg
When Ximpoko was weighed by first, he weighed around 283kg. But the Leopard research project noticed that he had eaten recently, which indicates that his weight with empty stomatch was between 250/255kg. Which is quite impressive, due the fact one 220kg male lion is already considere a big specimen. Ximpoko was a true beast.
I'll post about the Ghost males soon, It's a interesting story how these two boys have meet back in the day
