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.

Really glad he is back to where we can pick up, where we left off. He was Tsalala's first boyfriend, a lot of hope for the two of them, back then, but it was unreasonable, given the dynamics in Sabi Sands at that time, and they certainly haven't gotten any easier now, for a lone male. He is clearly a survivor, though.

I think his rute is Ngala/Shindzela - Manyeleti - Sabi Sands, there and back again.

Great sighting, we tend to post all Northern and Southern Avoca males offspring in the ‘Avoca males and their male lineage’ thread, just for future posts.

So happy that these 2 good looking guys are still together. The longer they keep away from fighting others, the better for their growing bond and success in the future.

Yea, currently patience is key for them in Sabi Sands, as they prob cant out duel anyone atm, but eventually they would need to act if they want to be territorial males and rise offspring, as NK is not getting younger, he is 8.5 yrs old "already".

I would wonder up to Nukhuma male lion. Nukhuma male lion is he is the oldest would be up to him. Talamatie young male lion is six? He is young male lion, but he has been on his own and experienced hunting, and from north to south. Young Talamatie male lion looks stronger and his mane is growing. In Sabi Sands where would they go? In the South there is the Gijima male lions and they may be the strongest lions; I say that, because Ndzhenga male lions are strongest and some point younger lions grow and stronger. Plain camp male lions and Gijima male lions stronger, but Gijima male lions are brave, bold, aggressive. Wonder if is not a coincidence Gijima male lions are with many lionesses, but Nukhulus are in the south. Nkuhuma male lions would be better in South?

Young Talamatie male lion is the young. In Sabi Sands I wonder where they can go? not many lions in central with Nzdhenga and Kambula lionesses. West many lions come and go, but Plain Camps may show up and Ximuguwe lionesses are aggressive may even hurt them with Plain camp male lions. Many lions Southern Avoca, Kruger male lion, Nukhuma, young Talamatie male lion, Black damn male lion, young Nukhuma male lion once with black damn male lions; young male lions and now Kambula male lions.

Ndhzengas in Singita:



Last time I remember any Ndhzenga in Singita was more than a year ago when Eorenji was mating with a then Talamati Breakaway female.

Back in the day the whole of Singita would be considered PCM territory but right now who knows if where Ndhzengas are right now counts as PCM territory or not.

Regardless, unusual for them to go so far west.
