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 lions that broke away from the main pride should always be the breakaway pride. Just like Mala Mala says the Nkuhuma Lionesses, initially 2, were the breakaway lionesses....yet they were the older ones and they did, in fact, break away from the rest of the pride. I don't understand how he could say it should be the other way around. Would be strange.
I was saying this before already.
How did we determined which group breakaway? You could also say that younger females breakaways because they didnt accept new male and moved off from their natal area.
Most of adult females accepted new territorial male in the area and stayed in their core territory, while younger females went nomadic, didnt accept new males and will settle in new area.
By all "rules" now, group with S8 male should be called core.
But whatever, lodges will decide how they will call them in the end.
