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.

Shy Boy was "unknown" partner of HRM from around mid 2018 to September 2019, when he mysteriously disapeared.. 

People might not know this, but Shy Boy was original member of DeLaporte coalition in the very beginning, Shy Boy and 3 other males (HRM, Talamati and Dreadlocks) where seen on a giraffe kill in Lion Sands in early September 2019 :

This was the last sighting of Shy Boy, just 1 month later, in October, rest of the 3 where seen with a new male, Three Tooth Tsalala, on a kill around DeLaporte waterhole..

What happened to Shy Boy in that month period is unknown, maybe he is still alive somewhere, afterall, unrelated males often split and break coalitions..

Shy boy also partnered up with a male lion that I've named as the tramp. He was partner of the Hilda's Rock male as well

Great photo.
I didn't even know that you have shared those sightings before.
I've deleted the ones that I posted earlier... However. I don't know what does the watermark of Tsalala/Marthly Male Lions when he isn't the photographer.

When Shy boy was with the tramp. Still was Hilda's Rock male as coalition partner with them. So I believe that was before.

I call him a tramp, because he was alone all the time. Around July 2018, he formed a four lion alliance with Hilda and two young lions. Later, they broke up somehow.
Tramp It's indeed the Renosterkoppies nomad male. As far I remember they are located in the west section of H2-2 highway, with very little information.

Its hard to catch up with all those nomadic males and their coalitions.. 

As far as I remember HRM was seen with this 3 in 2018 for short time:

Those are 2 Nomadic Renosterkoppies (note: those are not the same Renosterkoppies brothers as the ones with a male with Scared Nose who had mange) and older Nwaswitshaka..
