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.

Most likely he would have stayed close until being chased of by the Tumbellas and started roaming around on his own afterwards.
If he lived long afterwards, he would have been seen, just like any other nomadic male. But I guess he died not long after.
There are plenty of dangers in the wild that don't involve other lions. In any case, he hasnt been seen for months now.
I have no doubt that the Tumbellas can hold of the PC males. They dont seem confident enough to take on male lions, including the singular lions like Nym or DM avoca.
But there is always a chance of them running into a lone lioness or cub.
I agree. As we assume a lot with others, he is ofc technically missing, but I consider him perished. But we never know with lions that is the only truth.
