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.

These lions are the bulked up version of the Kruger lions, that's why it is bigger than the bulked up version of the Serengeti lions.


 

 
I do not compleatly agree, while serengeti lions and crater lions live almost next door to eachother, and lives the same terrain Kurger lions and okavango lions are quite different in apparence, but you are right that lions in okavango probably are closly related to those from south africa, but all my years of watching lions, only on south africa lions appare different from eachother, like from phinda, shamwari to Kruger these lions looks different. that might be because the terrain is very differnt, and in Okavango the terrain is as we know very spessial.
