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.

Myambula pride has only 4 adult lionesses. Do you know by chance how many adult females are in Skorro pride?

6 adult lionesses in the Skorro pride.
Perhaps he was with the 4 adult lionesses and some of the Myambula sub-adults lionesses

6 minus 1 which is with Skorro Breakaway, so its 5, right?

When the Orpen males ruled the Skorro pride were 8 lionesses moving through Shindzela and Ngala. Currently, the majority of the Skorro sightings were 6 lionesses.
We need wait for more photos. One of the Skorro lionesses is very easy to ID her. His skin tone is almost white.
Hercules and Skorro pride
March 2020
It was a rainy day and I knew that cats will soon be walking about. The rain just stopped when we left Maroela camp and drove onto the S106.
We heard a male lion calling and soon found the big man close to the road. In the distance we saw something small moving and to our surprise it was few lionesses with cubs.
They looked straight into my lense (actually looking at the male lion) and made the most beautiful photos. We kept our distance as they walked on the dirt road.
It was a magical sighting as we and three other cars took turns to drive in front to view the pride before they disappeared into the green thickets.

Is that a fresh wound on his hip? Hard to tell if when I zoom in on the photo, if it is a fresh wound or an older scar. It appears that it may be fresh, if so we might be getting some answers to the mystery of what happened to Hercules. Especially if he is with the Skorros.

He have this mark on his hip for ages now.
Ahh, ok well then that doesn't help answer all of our questions, but if he is with the Skorros, that certainly goes a long way to answering them as well. He is definitely a serious looking beast for sure.

It doesn't look fresh to me at all. In most recent encounter with Nharhu males from 3 months ago or so larger Mbiri is said to get a bit injury to his back leg so it might be from that encounter.
