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.

Nyekundo and Osupaat are doing well and great job with their Enkoyonai pride and they are also great protectors for their young offsprings. Despite they are still very young and being highly outnumbered by the rest of Mara's current other coalitions, including their great neighbors: the four Iseketa pride males (Derre and Barrikoi sons), three Sankai Breakaway pride males (Ordikdik young males), the six Ordikdik dispersed subadults (Olerai and Olekiti's sons), the four Sankai dispersed subadults (Olope and Olbariko's sons), and not even mentioned about the three strong Sala's males who can easily march into Enkoyonai pride's range to simply make a threat. Although the previous four groups are standing by young and unexperienced lions, in the future they can also pose a threat if they'd stay in the area; we hope these two 5 years old Fig Tree Boys can save their offsprings, pride and themselves.

Super handsome Nyekundo: a very beautiful close-up portrait of Maridadi's son. He got some fresher cutting wounds on his nose recently, which also resembles a lot to his father's scars (by fights for mating rights with his brother Osupaat most probably). While he is a spit of Maridadi, Osupaat is more like Kaka.

Another rescent of Osupaat! Look how his mane has darkened and grown! His left eye has healed but still great to identify him as it healed in a different way than normal! He is a gorgeous boy!

Osupaat and Nyekundo

They are still defending Enkoyonai pride family and their territory in OMC very effectively! And they look more and more stunning as they are going into their prime years. They took a little trip to the reservation, but now back in town.
