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.

Yep it's two mothers, the litter sizes are not known yet. Babs Naido, a member of one of the FB groups was at a sighting with them and said two lionesses were suckling cubs. The ones known as "pale eyes" and "Ridge noses daughter"
The female on arathusa (ridge nose's daughter) was seen with two cubs back then so at least two of them are hers

Wrong, even if both parents have the white gene, chances that they will have white cubs are very low..
Is it not 25% chance per cub? I didn't pay attention during punnet squares in biology lol
It is if both parents carry white gene, but we do not know Birminghams and Avocas carry white gene. Could also be that some of them carry it and some do not. We do not know that even if Birminghams carry white gene if they passed it through to Nkuchuma females.

What is the name of the third lioness that was born in 2016 and are sister or cousin with Pale eyes and Ridge Noses Daughter?

Her name is tattered ear, she might also be denning but it's not clear yet.

According to James Tyrell, he said that it appears two Mangheni cubs have already been lost, since OM passed, and that "two unknown males" appear to be shadowing the pride.
