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.

He has potential to become really massive. So glad that limp is beginning to fade.

He will be massive like his half brother Dark Mane Avoca and their father Brutus, absolute beasts..

Im rly excited to see what future holds for him, he has quite unique storyline so far, he is very attached to his pride and fighted of 2 dominant Ross males who tryed to oust him but without sucess..

Tyson still doesnt like him, but he doesnt dare to fight him alone for serious at this point, because his brother Fabio is very tolerate of him (no agression between them whatsoever).. 

At this point, if he manages to stay with the pride for half a year to a year more, i think its quite likely for him to form a coalition with his younger brothers who are 2 yrs younger.. I hope for that scenario..

Yes totally,Also I would like think that he was also probably sired by the comrade of Brutus,that In my opinion was by far the biggest of the five bros,a absolutely beast!

Something to be said about persistence, for sure. I really do hope he is able to hang in there, just like you said. But, if he tries to mount another lioness, especially if either Ross Male sees it, I'm not so sure Fabio would remain as tolerant. Hopefully he is able to resist that urge, if it arises again.

In fact, Fabio is very very tolerant with him,I believe that if Tyson doesn't do nothing,he also will make the same,I will say that Tyson if the undisputed BOSS in this duo,Although in 2015/2016 when they sired the 2 Xikukutsu males,Fabio was the BOSS

Sort of like the relationship Mahkulu had with Mr. T. In the beginning Mak was the dominant one, in his later years he gave way to T, when he returned following KT's death.

Yeah probably even can exist that they exchange role like the Mbiri males among others, used to do time to time
