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.

The most impressive of the 3 Mjejane male lions on patrol in the Kruger National Park.

The powerful Mjejane coalition consists of 3 brothers who control a big territory in the southern parts of the Kruger Nation park between Malelane and the Lukimbi/Mjejane concession. They currently spend most of their time around the S118 and S119.

Casanova Brother of Casper does what he does best - Chasing after Lionesses.
Watch how he chase this Lioness down the road!
Casper the very rare White Lion (Only three White Lions currently alive in the wild) and his three Shish Brothers - Casanova, Footloose and Mfowethu - controls the Satara Pride and are very busy lately 'entertaining' the Pride Lionesses. Hopefully we will see a white Lion cub very soon.
To produce a white lion, both parents must possess the recessive gene called Leucism.

A legend pf Kruger. Nice to see him in great condition for his 11 yrs old age! He is still nomadic as far as Im aware, hope he finds a partner as he cant take over a pride by himself since he is surrounded by coalitions.

Casper and two of his Brothers, Casanova and Footloose, walking down the road with FULL tummies after they feasted on a Buffalo they killed during the night. Third brother Mfowethu also was spotted with his full tummy and his body still covered in Buffalo blood. What an amazing sighting!
The buffalo carcass was found, stripped of all the meat and only a few scraps left for the Hyenas and Jackal to feast on.


Filmed on the H7 between Satara Rest-camp and Nsemani Dam in Kruger National Park

Young Lubyelubye male lion doing his early morning stretches. The photographer said this sighting was just after 4:30am gate opening time at Lower Sabie. He (the photographer) has grown very attached to this young male with the skew lower right canine, he has so much character!
