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.

Lions of Sabi Sands

Even for a adult lion its harsh out there. She could have been killed by Skorro or the Othawa pride. Hyenas could have caught her or she could have had a hunting accident.
Though she could still be hiding somewhere, it doesn't look good. 

Good to see Gingerella again. I don't know what happened to her brother but if he is gone her chances should be a lot higher to be accepted back by her family.
Its notable that this is the first update on any of the Othawa youngsters in weeks though. It doesn't look good considering that Jr was alone in his last rumoured sightings as well. 

But ultimately, thats how life is in the wild. The death of one animal is a blessing for another.

Yes, I also can see only 2, but the 3rd probably is with Ridgenose and Amber on Singita as the adult females were on a zebra kill a few days' ago. Hopefully we will see her (the 3rd) together with other subadults soon.

The two Southern Avocas do very well with the pride of Sand River

The two Avocas of the South do very well with the pride of Sand River

The Southern Avoca males are a well-ordered coalition without a doubt

This means that she is from the N'waswitshaka pride?

Exactly, she was seen last year with the four N'waswishaka males. But since the coalition has established by themselves in Sabi Sands. This lioness most likely had returned to their pride, or even, has been spending time in Sabi Sands on a area without much rangers activity

Two Kruger males from the Torchwood pride (only one pictured) were seen last night. They are in very good shape, according to Nkorko Rangers.
