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.

BYM and his sister (with two oldest cubs) will be turning 5 years old by the end of this Month - start of Oct.
He has been through a hell of a lot in just 5 years:
- Lost his dads.
- Lost all his brothers and sisters to mange, leaving just him and BYF.
- Ross males took over.
- Took a number of beatings from them over the years, which got a lot worse post 2019.
- Chased multiple times by both Ross Males.
- Was badly injured at 3.5 years old. An injury that he adapted well to.
- His sister matured and had offspring sired by the Ross Males.
- Left his natal pride and wandered alone.
- Met TYM. Allegedly chased him for a bit.
- Met him again and stayed together this time.
- Finally, he has a partner who is of the same age.
Crazy to think that both these males both share genetics from the Birmingham Pride. BYM moreso directly of course, but young Torchy too from his Fathers' side.
Lets wish these two boys the best and hope they stay together and avoid tragedy (styx-nkuhuma).
