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.

Avoca Male Lions and Their Male Lineage

Probably.

They are feeling the pressure from the Nwaswitshakas, Plain Camp males and whoever else and their mothers thats invading northern Sabi Sands these days. So the Nkuhumas shift North. Which makes the Talamatis nervous so they move north too. Blondie and Mohawk stay close to the Nkuhumas while DM, which has no stakes or interest in the plight of his brothers, sticks with Talamati. So they move up as well.

Its funny ow quickly things changed. Not that long ago we got tired of the endless will the Avocas move south debate.

The two magnificent, and handsome Northern Avocas on the move through their territory of the Northern Sabi sands Chitwa Chitwa, where Blondie sadly shows a determined effort to keep up with his brother Mohawk and also three female members of the Nkuhuma pride strutting further ahead.
Hopefully with further rest, and regular meals, he will start to show greater signs with recovery, otherwise both males appear in good condition.

If Mohawk does indeed have TB, it doesn't seem to be affecting him too badly thus far. Let's hope he is able to live a long, fruitful, life. We know he doesn't lack for courage.

On the other hand Blondie is always looking quite skinny so he possibly has TB which is affecting him.

Agreed, he seems to also be losing muscle tone, especially in that injured leg. It almost appears, in this video, that front left leg has possibly suffered a dislocation at the elbow. There is definitely something off there.

Mohawk has signs of it. So, most likely he has TB. Blondie could be been suffering the same disease, As he always looking skinny and his injuries doesn't seems to heal fast.

Indeed, his injuries do seem to linger. I will continue to hope for the best for both of them.
