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.

The pride had only 3 lionesses when the coalition took over.

Are the new cubs from the Mbiri pride all RRM's?  or could the Orpen males have snuck in to father some?  I think they were also seen sporadically mating with the lionesses....

Mbiri young males are still with their pride, 5 Nharu young males are nomadic for about half a year.. 

RRM isnt dominant over Mbiri, yet Nharu pride, all their cubs are RRM's.. Mbiri doesnt have dominant male atm..

Well, I thought I read somewhere that the Orpen males were also seen mating with some of the Nharu pride lionesses.... So it would make sense if this is the case, that they could legit. have a chance at siring some of the cubs. RRM was seen sporadically mating with them while the Orpens were absent, mainly. Finally, the latter just abandoned that pride in favor of their current ones, having too much territory can backfire and then none of your offspring will benefit!

Silver Eyes Talamati lioness with subadult male:





This young male is absolutely huge for being only 1.5 yrs old (he looks to be close to a size of adult lioness already) , Talamati lionesses and DM are doing great job raising their offspring :

The RRM is turning into a magnificent male lion.

The question is, Who is the father of him. (I know that he was sired by the Avoca/Giraffe.) But Is hard to tell which one...
