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.

Funny cos that’s part of the reason I was sure it was him too.

He seems to have acquired an 'equals sign' scar on his muzzle/nose, very similar to what Nhena had, though more obvious and visible.

im not 100% familiar with Kruger maps but i remember a few months ago Nkuhlu males were often posted around H1-2
Ye the long face very much looks like Ridge Nose son, the mane too.

It's a little odd seeing an avoca face on a PCM body, almost looks edited.

Serious looking dude. Those scars healed up nicely, though you can still just about see them.
It would be sad if S. Avoca was the last Avoca at this point, but he hasn't been seen in a couple of days either right? Maybe we'll all get that fairy tale and the 2 of them will show up together. That said, Mohawk going back to his sons like that is sort of a worrying sign as I've seen so many stories of lions making rounds when the end comes to see old prides and such before going off to pass on.

The Southern Avoca Male is sighted with Kruger Male at North Sabi Sands on October 29, 2024, more specifically they are at the Kruger boundary and no news of Mohawk but his last sighting from what I remember is October 11, 2024 and Mohawk's last place of sighting is near where the Southern Avoca and Kruger Male is at on October 29, 2024.
