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.
Two nomadic males have been seen wandering around our most northern border.
The lone survivor of the coalition called the Kumana Males has been seen around the southern parts of our concession, sporting injuries around his face and legs, that could be from defending his territory from encroaching males or possibly from prey that put up a fight.
Shish Pride has been seen slowly moving closer and closer to our western border.
The Mountain Pride was by far the most viewed pride this month, and have been sighted in the central parts of the concession with their young cubs in good condition.
A lioness was seen with a newly born cub on Park Road, we are not too sure of her pride.
A lone nomadic male was seen on multiple occasions on our concession.
Xihamham was seen in good condition on the concession, but his brothers were nowhere to be seen.

Funny how they are very close to area from which their fathers originate from, around Kirkmans Kamp.
Does anyone know more about Eastern Bank pride, found this picture of them and young EBM's in 2013 at Kirkmans :

Is Eastern Bank pride later and today known as Sand River Pride?
Very interesting point here, i try to find somethings, i just find one facebook page called Tjellahanga and it was wrote "Mala Mala call us TTjellahanga pride and Kirkmans Eastern bank pride" and i found another report of Kirkmans in 2014 on Facebook they wrote "Sand river pride found on the beach of the Sand River... The Eastern pride were then found 500m down the river" doesn't that meand that is it a different pride ? I don't know, it seem that no real informative report on the Eastern bank pride was made... Maybe that the same pride as you said with time , the called change...

Yea, because since those times, theres no references of EB pride whatsoever, did they went extinct in meanwhile or moved further in Kruger, if thats the case, are they maybe Plains Camp pride??
"Eastern Bank", east of Kirkmans is Plains Camp.
At that time in 2013/14 there where 6 subadult males and 1 subadult female, and only 2 adult lionesses, later on in 2015 only males where seen..
It might be that females move in Kruger.
