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.

Yeah I've been watching the twitch stream for about a week now, they don't seem to answer viewer questions that often compared to YT and the website, but the atmosphere is nice.

Yea, althrough we still dont know 100% of Torchwood pride dynamics, because they are always seen in small gruops all over the place..

Mohawk is turning into a beautiful male. Already he's on his prime. BTW, I didn't know that WildEarth was on Twitch

Mohawk is so underrated... He’s really fearless these days. And seen with what, four prides?. Not bad for the “grumpy” one lol

No and won't happen in very least one year. Pride from the couple of months spent a lot of time in smaller, separated groups, but at this point there is rather no possiblity for a permament split and forming a breakaway pride with its own separate territory.  I also do not think any breakaway happened in Torchwood pride even through at some point it looked like part of that pride will split from the core pride and settle in northern Mala Mala, althrough as Tr1x24 said we can not be sure of dynamic within Torchwood pride due to very little amount of updates we have on this pride.

Btw it can get very hot around Torchwood pride with now 3 different coalitions possibly intrested in taking it for itself. If DM will indeed join up again with his 2 brothers they will be a big force.

Anybody have the backstory on the Nkuma and Styx males? When were they born, who are their fathers and when did they form a coalition?

Ximungwe lioness and her cub are in Djuma.


They were alone but the guide said they were seen in the company of the Talamati pride, the lioness has some injuries on her back leg, cub is unharmed.

Nukuchuma male is born in mid 2016 while Styx male is some months younger. Both were sired by Birmingham males. At some point of his nomadic life Nkuchuma male joined Styx pride while Styx male was still with his natal pride, and after N'was males started to mate with Styx females they moved away together.

Very likely it is.. Bad and sad news, subadult still too young to survive alone..

What a sad scene, young female lying besides her weak mother and waiting her to lead ..hope this old lioness can pull it thru for some more time, young female still needs few more months, but it doesnt look good if she dont get meal immidiately..
