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 young Ottawa sub-adults are looking fantastic at the moment. Without their mothers teaching them how to hunt accurately, most would have predicted their condition to deteriorate at first. As you can see this is not the case, and they are bigger and stronger than ever before.

Yeah they are. 

On the ulusaba virgin livestream the guide mentioned the young lioness "gingerella" is a good hunter, and Othawa juniors bulk and size helps them bring down prey.

Its good to have such an monthly updates from MalaMala.. 

Althrough, some of their ages are not exactly correct in month, and prob a bit of speculation, especially on Torchwood pride, i dont think younger females and young male are 5 yrs old already, they are prob born after mid 2016..

It it althrough sad part of it is that sometime they came up with even 3-4 months delay.

Did the Singita report say there was an interaction between the males (OM & N’W) or just the females. I get the feeling this is just another round of bad luck for this pride, especially since they move around so much. 

To think Othawa Male could have had sub adults by now!

Only the females, they mentioned the Othawa male having a limp and sort of inferred an interaction but I think that was just a bit of sensationalism on their part

Not that we know about. There wasn't any raport of such interaction.

None as far I know.
Though he would be a logical next target should they ever desire to expand.

Wouldn't be good for the Mhangeni though. That pride needs a good solid coalition thats occupying them as their prime pride.
