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.

I wonder if they were the two that were stalking the Mhangeni earlier and now moved on.

No, that was Styx and NK.

A pic of a PC boy on the kill they stole from the Nkuhumas
"My 4th night in the Sabi Sand Game Reserve. This male lion is part of a coalition of 2 young males, they were chasing the females away from their buffalo kill."

Had the talamatis on drive today, I think it was about 10-11 members which seems to be normal recently 

One of the young males brushing up against Dark Mane, he still has some growing to do before he reaches Dark Manes size!

Yea, its Styx and Nkuhuma..

Interesting how Kambula youngsters are not affraid of them. 

It seems that Mhangenis succesfully chased Nk/Styx away for now.
