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.

Oh boy, knew this was going to happen one of these days. Depending on how many of the Nkuhlus are in the area, Gijimas might want to respond, quickly.

If thats Styx female, based of nose color, it should be adult Bboys one, meaning she lost her cubs, again.

Possibly from the Nkuhlus.

people on Facebook said she hasn't given borth yet and could be faking to distract him (Nkuhlu). 
But i think you guys would know better, so did she have cubs recently?

I was told she did but lost them already, not necessarily by Nkuhlus but it seems like in previous situations

To be honest I think it would be better for all the lions involved if the Styx girls (or at least some of them) went with the Nkuhlus, as the Gijimas have more than enough lionesses and cubs to defend already. And the 4 or 5 lionesses of the Sand River pride were never going to keep the Nkuhlus occupied for long. It would have been better if all the Styx had mated with the Nkuhlus as now they might split, but I don't think the Gijimas could have defended 3 Southern, 4 Musuthlu, and 6 Styx lionesses, and all their cubs.
