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.

Sad to say but for the future of those cubs it is better the PCM get rid of Tumbela male asap. I can't understand how they haven't killed him yet...

While trying not to be biased towards him, given he is one of my favorite lions, only going off of what we have seen for so many years of following him, and while he is a male lion, making anything possible, I do not believe he is a threat to any cubs, certainly not at this stage. Even when he and Limper were dominant of the Othawa Pride, and they would slip away and spend time with the Xim lioness and her little daughter, neither one of them ever showed aggression towards her daughter. Since then he has been around cubs of other prides, including most recently the Manghenis, and did not harm the cubs. The Mangheni cubs were actually much more aggressive towards him, than he towards them, they were even smacking him while feeding, and he didn't even smack back. For all the documented times of his being around the cubs from other prides, I have yet to see a single instance of aggression towards any of them. His behavior around cubs is one of the many reasons I try to follow him so closely, as I find it fascinating.
