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.

I don't think we can compare the Kambula males with their sisters. Males have to go out and make their place in the world, something the lionesses don't have to do. Plus we always see the boys on big kills (buffalo, hippo, elephant) so there is never the same scramble to get some food. I'm sure if one of them brought down an impala, you'd see very similar levels of aggression.
What I will say is, this next generation of Kambula ladies seem to have inherited their father's ability to bring down buffalo, as we can see in the Mala Mala report. Something their mothers struggled to get the hang of.
