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.
AN OLD FRIEND RETURNS : The entire camp was woken at 4h40 this morning by the roar of male lion very close to camp . Kevin , Themba and our guests headed out in search of the big cat and to our astonishment it was Sonof the dominant male of the Takazile pride . Sonof disappeared from our area about 8 months ago and we feared that we would never see him again . There were some reports of sightings of Sonof as far as the Klaserie Game Reserve about 60km away from us , and we assumed that he has established himself with a new pride there . Needless to say , everyone on Balule is abuzz from excitement that this beautiful animal has returned . As we speak , he is resting right in front of Sausage Tree Welcome home Sonof ! Photos by Eswe
