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.

Here is the young male Leopard who made a Kudu Cow kill.



*This image is copyright of its original author





When he cached his kill in a tree, an older male scavenged from the kill.



*This image is copyright of its original author





When the younger male came back for the kill, the older male pushed him higher into the tree.

Here they are at an uneasy truce over a Kudu kill.

Here is the video for reference.

@Tonpa

Are these unmarked male Leopards in the Sabi Sands?

Are there a lot of unknown males or individuals roaming in the Sabi Sands?

Not sure they are, but the guy on the radio asked if it's "homie" or another name I couldn't catch. Thought it might be homelite but it's before his time 

There's usually some unknown males lurking around, but they get names pretty fast once they establish themselves. There's probably a few on the malamala-kruger border. Not much driving over there
