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.

Here’s a highlights package of the month:
Lions: Prolific lion sightings were had not only due to the large variety of kills the lions were viewed feeding on, but also a number of different individuals that are seldom seen – both lionesses from unknown prides and young coalition males possibly seeking new territories. The Majingilane males continue their stronghold in this area, though were seen returning from the east
Othawa Pride
Sad news from the month is that the Ottawa pride have lost one of their cubs – they are now down to two youngsters, two sub-adults and two adult lionesses.
