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.

Lions of Sabi Sands

@Bruh what If the male in question was collared then it isn't anyone we know of because there wasn't any collared male lions in Sabi Sands since forever.

If he wasn't collared, say some lioness in the pride was, then if you can get the year this male was weighed, then we could guess who it might have been.

Anyway, 280kg with a near empty stomach is around record numbers, I wouldn't imagine even HB to have weighted so much.

Has there ever been a pride to rebuild as quickly as the SP, especially when considering she was down to just herself? It took incredible perseverance on her part, and some luck, finding two males that would accept her two female subs. Absolutely incredible story!

@Mapokser I believe it's a collaring operation on one of the females or whatever,maybe to remove,or to collar. It could be that they were collaring a female within the pride,but also darted the male and others to check on them for TB and rabies as they often do and weighed them. (like with mapogos they were tested for tb and rabies and weighed according to rob). 

We didn't get to the date part but it would've surely been helpful to know when it was. Anyway it is a veterinarian so he's not cappin.

Firstly, a lot of people have no idea what cappin' is (I am not one of them), so plain English would be appreciated, so that everyone might follow along. Secondly, I do not believe anyone is accusing anyone of lying, simply saying more information is clearly needed. I don't know he is a veterinarian, I have no idea who he is, and when a claim like this is made, which lacks so much vital information, of course it is going to be questioned. Surely there must be some mention of this, outside of simple texts, somewhere, a wildlife journal and the like, there must be some record.

I wondered if I've remembered correctly but didn't floppy have a brother or two? If only one of them was still here, they'd be awesome together.
