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.

Jock Safari Lodge:

Lion dynamics:

A lion prides takeover always causes turmoil among the prides and it takes a few months for them to settle down again. The Eastern Bank Males that came into the region, and killed some of the dominant male lions, have now settled with the Biyamiti Weir pride. The Jock pride females moved their 18 month old offspring away from their core territory towards the west to escape the Eastern Bank Males. With no dominant pride males caring for the pride the safety of the 8 young Jock lions is a concern. Over the past month several nomadic males moved into the region. Nomadic male lions quickly pick up that an area is absent of dominant males. Story by Louis Strauss. Photo of one of the Styx Males by Estiaan Houy.

This is where the news about the Styx males belong really, it's good to know where they are hanging around.

Just as a reminder, this one is the other Styx male:

I really hope they get together again.

You have to learn from your pops, boys. Two is way much better than one.

No.According to the person that saw him it seems Shy Toulon has teamed up Solo.
