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.

Yea, he is not pride male anymore for a while, since Fourways/Torchwood coalition ousted him and bro few years back, but he stayed in the area as nomad, 2 Fourways expanded further north, and Torchwood male who stayed with Mazithi pride died earlier this year, so he linked back with his old pride, which he and his brothers dominated since around 2015-16, when they ousted 2 Old Mazithis (fathers of Mantimahles, S79 Mazithis, Lubyelubye Mazithis).
These (ex) Mazithi Pride males sired Mazithi Tshokwanes, "young" Mazithis (not so young anymore), possibly even few more.
Do you know that this old Mazithi and his 4 brothers came from Kumana pride ?
