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.

Well, I'm glad that all four are fine. It would be nice to see some updates on the DeLaportes as well.

I think the N'ws might actually chase them out, as they where seen around Tinga Logde, which is usually area where Dreadlocks and Talamati are seen, if the Nwaswitshakas lost the fight they would prob retreat further north, but they stayed in that area... 

Also it seems that these 2 actually split from Three Tooth and HDM, i have no idea where those 2 are..

They prob moved west alongside S1.. south are Mpondos, east are S. Avocas and 2 s129 males.. 
Thats the only place they can go..Hope we will get some sightings of them soon..

We really need a new name for this beauty, his other 3 brothers all have some unique characteristics for which they are recognizeble and named, but he doesnt, i dont like to call him just Dominant N'ws.

There is easly a lot of time for him to be named. There is no need to be hasty in that matter. For the time being he can be reffered as dominant or most impressive N'was.

Still unknown if he kept his sight in that eye, but it looks as though that might be the case in these images. Thanks @Dreadlocks for sharing this!!

Wide Nosed male mating with 1 of the Styx females (prob older one) in Lion Sands:

https://www.instagram.com/tv/CF4PSHCh1p2...elb0e890i5 

Also the youngest Styx female was also seen in the company of some Nwaswitshaka males, aswell as Southern Pride lioness (status of their cubs unknown).

It seems that slowey but shurely Nwaswitshakas are taking control of Styx pride, which is great for both sides. 

Still no report or info of any encounter between Nwaswitshakas and NK/Styx young males, it seems that 2 young males are staying at the safe distance when their lionesses are with Nwaswitshaka males.. But its only matter of time when 2 boys leave them for good..
