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.

After several close calls these past few years, unfortunately a Nharu Lioness was snared and killed.    Please do what you can to demand the Manyeleti do something.    I’ve spoken with guides and they’re limited in what the can do or say publicly because Manyeleti is Gov controlled

So I’ve asked those on the ground and the thought is that it’s a Red Road daughter.   But wouldn’t say 100% until they see the pride together again


EDIT: New comparison pics establish she was 1/2 Thanda Impi daughters. Now leaves only one of their offspring w the pride left.

This kind of tragedy repeats over and over again in Manyeleti, this is so unacceptable.

(01-18-2024, 11:29 PM)Rabubi Is it possible that Mbiri pride was the one being darted with contraceptives?  I remember that the reason given for the darting at the time was to control the lion population of Manyeleti. Wrote:

As I said particular growl only happens during mating, I remember Dr. Craig Packer talking about this and saying that these growls don't happen in fake mating, that the male do that very particular growl only when he is mating for real.
It's getting worse. This pride is the definition of keeping it in the family...lmfao

Sweet Home Manyeleti lmao

And she reminds me of the darker Othawa Young Lioness in a way.... The profile, coloring, bone structure.  At first I couldn't put a finger on who the Othawa Lioness reminded me of, and then I saw younger pictures of Scar Eye and of those when he was healthier...the deep, dark eyes, nose shape, and set of the jaw...  I could hardly believe it, thinking Skorro at first, had sire her.   I now believe Scar Eye to be the biological sire of the tawnier one in the pride.  Ironically, both lionesses in this iconic pride are probably the grand-daughters of Sizanani.  When most or all of his sons (depending on if you think Mandevu is his or not) never made it to their absolute prime, his male progeny by luck and circumstance were able to sire females to keep the famous core pride going.  Unfortunately, Skorro Jr. became more dominant after Sassy went into heat.... I'd love for him to sire more of his own in another pride one day, but he really misses his partners and former life....  At least their daughters seem to give him some solace.  They are his last link to them.  

He is more their father in what he has contributed to keeping them alive, then ever his brothers were.   

By the way, do you know if this lioness had offspring by RRM? and if so, how many?

The sad, sad fates of the Thandi Impi Coalition offspring....  So many were killed by disease and a few by poaching/snares.  Where is the fourth male of the Tinswalo Coalition that disappeared?  Look at what happened that nearly killed Ncile!  Now look at what happened to one of their daughters!  Only one daughter of theirs left in the Nharu Pride?  

At least Ncile has a new lease on life.  Maybe he can soon keep the Skorro bloodline from that coalition going.... He's mating quite frequently.
