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.

The photo is 2 or 3 days old. They have reportedly made it back to their usual territory.

Oh.. its very far... Inyati is in western sector of sabi sands...
They must have traversed all the way through Simbabli, Elephant Plaints, Singita atleast even if they have taken the shortest route and came through Gowrie gate..
May be likely they must have came through Londolozi

The Marthly Males are back! 
After a lengthy absence from our shores of the Sand River, the three Marthly male lions announed their arrival by bringing down a giraffe during the night.

Here one of the males leaves the carcass to go rest.

Ntsevu/Kambula lioness and her very young cub (Londolozi, July 2017)
Most likely killed by Avocas
photo by Adam Dudley

An Ntsevu lioness moves her very young cub from one den site to another. Moments like these are dangerous for the cub, as they are vulnerable to other predators when exposed like this.

Despite the mother being completely unperturbed by our presence, the cub was a bit more inquisitive about the vehicle. Learning from the mother’s reaction though, the cub will then grow up trusting of the presence of vehicles.

The Ntsevu lioness eventually settles down to rest for a while. Her cub’s coat was completely wet by this point, having had to move through the dew-laden grass to keep up with it’s mother.

The Southern Pride were seen this morning following up on a herd of Cape Buffalo in the area, until the heat intensified and they settled to rest under a shady tree.
