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.

Just rewatched this, did anyone noticed that female with Osindile at the end has a collar? 

Do we know if she comes from Skorro pride based of this?

Does anyone know which lion this is in Manyeleti? And is this a snare wound? Looks super painful..

I assume the photos are recent. Tagged Mantonebi, which is northern Manyeleti, close to Orpen and Timbavati border.

Old photo of Ncile. Must have been taken not long after he got caught in the snare since the wounds were still fresh. Hate that he made it through all that just to end up disappearing recently.

Thanks! Was worried for another human-wildlife conflict in Manyeleti.. luckily that is not the case. Yes.. I hate it too that he seems to have dissapeared, a lion that survived hardship and made a comeback..

Tintswalo male Ncila is dead, last sighting of him he was a few hundred meters from 1/2 Mongawane male. Maybe Mongawanes killed him but even if not, he vanished and Mongawanes seems to be taking the Skorro pride that belonged to Tintawalos.

Mandevu visits Manyeleti and the Mbiri pride from time to time since Ncila's death and has been seen with the Orpen son multiple times, be it in Kruger or Manyeleti.

How is the Mbiri pride doing? The Orpen son is the young male that they accepted when they took over their natal pride right?

I do not know what lioness that may be, your post caused me to go rewatch that video as well, but for sure that collar does seem to be rather tight. After recently seeing the images of the lioness who lost her life from being strangled, because the collar that was placed on her got caught on a buffalo's horn, I do wish they would come up with another solution.
