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.

It was said that the rest of his group had scratches after they were chased by Gijimas, they could realistically have stand their ground but it's not how it usually works in lion dynamics.
He doesnt look (yet) in bad condition to be food for hyenas.
As i said, from this video it doesnt appear he has any significant scars/scratches neither on that leg nor on his hips/back (areas which lions target) which would point out to prolonged beating/fight.
He prob got caught and got biten on his leg by 1 of the males behind, and then prob Gijimas lost interest or/and went for the rest of the squad.
It might just be pain from the bite, leg might not be broken. Even if something is broken, its definetly recoverable.
He was prob sitting low around the same area, trying to heal, he should be start moving now.
He knows traverse area of his group, they should reunite.
