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.

Any info about that injury, didnt know about that..
Shame, these 2 oldest boys where looking great and big.
Not much info, there were no public pictures. They found tracks of a young male dragging his leg with blood in his track around 9th July, a few days later Lauren said she was shown a picture and the leg looked broken. After that there was no information until today

The guide said he got injured during the buffalo hunting in early July, broke his back foot. Today it has been confirmed that the male was indeed Ridge Nose's cub, which is shame, yes.
He was an impressive looking lion at a bit over 2 years old, almost the same size as Mohawk, you know. Such a shame. Now I think his remaining brother will have to team up with younger males when they leave the pride.

Mange + nomadic life.
After 2019, 6 Styx's where only seen (2 adults, 3 young females and young male) then 1 young female was killed by Kambulas around early 2020, and 2nd died from hunt injuries in late 2020 at Lion Sands, which was really shame.
