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.

Interesting how this female (just like lone Tsalala not long ago) is still not in estrus while being born in mid 2019, while some young females from SP, Styx and soon Othawas already went in estrus at ~ 3 - 3.5 yrs.
This again shows have different circumstances and experiences in life affects lions biology, thats why comparing lions in a manner "why are these males not showing territorial signs at ~6 yrs of age, while those other guys are at ~4" is not possible, because from outside, we dont know and understand those stuff.
Now we have 2 pairings like this, Styx/Kambula and NK Breakaways, if they somehow manage to link, that would be great for both boys and girls, but not very likely to happen.
