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.

Kambula Group B consists of females from core pride
Kambula Group C consists of 4 younger males and 1 female??
Maybe someone can correct that?
group A = Kambula Breakaways / 2 Adults; 2 Subs
group B = Kambula Subs / 4 SubM / now 1 SubF
group C = Core Pride / now 4 Original Kambulas , now 5 YFs
I’m going to attach a screenshot of their September report that shows the group name breakdowns
There seems to be an extra Kambula young female. From what I remember, there were 11 surviving cubs from the Birmingham's 2018 litter. 6 males, 5 females. So how can there be a young female in Group B and 5 in Group C?

It was 12 surviving Sub Adults. 6M & 6F
MM last month admitted it’s been difficult to account for all because sometimes some of the females would move between groups. So hard it threw off their chart. If you look closely, they double counted one Sub Adult female. Their number there indicated 7 sub females. But I’ve only ever tracked 6 max.

It was 7 females and 6 males.
Now looks like 2 females are missing or are hanging between the groups.

It’s hasn’t been 13 in more than 18 months. A female went missing I want to say about February 2021. The number I’m using is those whom are expected to be alive within this year.
