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.

From Sabi Sabi Private Game Reserve:
Leopard update: Kashane male & Kigelia female
The Kashane male was seen resting off the recent Warthog kill he just had during the hot afternoon heat before the storm arrived. 
Kigelia was found with an impala kill within her mother’s territory this morning. Here she scans the nearby open plains for any potential competition for her kill.

Tingana - 4th November 2016
Definitely not in my good books, Tingana killed Xiluva 2005 on 21 November 2016 the proceeded to consume the carcass, something that no-one can explain. A sighting I would definitely not like to see or experience. As we spent time with both Tingana and Xiluva 2005 the reporting of this episode was very disturbing and upsetting for us all

New male leopard walks in the land of sabi sands now. He is son of the White Dam/Kalabash female, and the father is Maxabeni. He is born around January 2015. From this photo, he is very huge for two years old sub adult male.

From Sabi Sabi Private Game Reserve:
"This morning we came across White Dam’s sub adult cub moving through Maxabeni’s territory."

From Umkumbe Safari Lodge:
"There's an area on our traverse that we call "Broken Dreams". Last night, firm favourite Mxabene and the ever graceful Kigelia were spotted in the same area. 
There was nothing untoward about the situation - they just happened to be in the same place at the same time. This particular photo is of the handsome Mxabene. "

Pretty cool on safari live, they were filming this male and on live tv, he starts making his way to a watering hole and a hare jumps out and he catches it.

From Umkumbe Safari Lodge:
"Mxabene male leopard was seen during the course of the week in the same area as the graceful Kigelia. This was purely coincidence and there are no reports of them mating."
