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.

Northern Singita is vacant space, so its normal that Nkuhumas look to expand in that area..

It was vacated for years already (since decline of Ximhugwe pride) and yet no pride expended there yet.
