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 lions are always surprising to watch... They caught a Koodoo. At first I was thinking they were able to eat a prey in water. No the antelope was still alive ! They almost lazily killed it. Then a croc arrived. In front of the number of lions the reptile gives up wisely to ask for a piece of meat. Big pride by the way, and two big males too !

" As the sun starts to warm the sandstone rocks on the riverbed, this male lion roars in the start of the day. "

@Spalea Great find!

@Potato If I can hazard a guess may be the Southern Avoca with Sparta pride?

No, video has been taken on Skukuza. That is not Sparta pride arena.

Some great and updated news about the Tsalala male - We are happy to announce that he’s not with two but instead with three companions still stationary around DeLaporte Dam. As for the identifications it has turned out that beside the Hilda‘s Rock male he formed a coalition with one of the Talamati males (Matimba males offspring from 2012, 3rd picture) and an unknown fourth male (4th picture) we temporarily refer to as the Dreadlocks male (due to the Dreadlock in his mane). This Dreadlocks male was already seen back in 2018 together with the limping Talamati male at the Jock Safari Lodge

Great find @Potato Is Talamati's limp permanent? His hip looks a bit weird in the picture. I hope they stay together.

No idea about the limp. It would be intresting if they form coalition of 4. That would increase their chance to take over some land by a lot.
