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 are the Gomondwane males. They're sons of the old Gomondwane males as well.
You mean, they are the new Gomondwane males aka Shishangeni males?
The Shishangeni and Gomondwane are two different coalition of lions. The Shishangeni coalition is now made up of 2 males. Originally they were four males, But two of them have passed away. The third member died last year. The Gomondwane coalition is made up of seven males. They've split in two groups, while five of the seven spends most of their time together, the other two weren't seen in ages (As far I'm aware) From the group of 5, only three of the five were seen recently too. NOTE: (If I not mistaken)
NOTE: Shishangeni and Gomondwane are half-brothers. They were sired by the 6 old Gomondwane males. Description is wrong.
