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.
I think saying the Linping Monwana male, or any lion with that bad of injury, cannot hunt and survive alone is rubbish. We can look at may examples of this happening, 1 being Spearboy in the Mara; hes survived alone and has hunted with severe hip injury. We underestimate these lions when in that particular situation injured. I think any limping lone male can dig out a warthog if he had to and I would call that hunting.
