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.

Btw yet about size of those lions from Sabi Sabi. They indeed are smaler than Birminghams.

"Our rangers headed out one morning and were witness to something quite amazing – two male lion coalitions chasing one another.  One coalition comprising of the two Birmingham males who are considerably bigger, older and more dominant; chasing the four young, less experienced, and smaller males of the N’waswishaka male coalition…  Tyron summed up the sighting in his blog, “A whole lot of roar”."

Well yes, as we said before, they will need to gain some weight, and they will, as they get older and close to prime yrs.

It looks like N'was males can't make their mind who to take on - Birminghams or S Avocas or perhaps they want to take territory of both.

After some very vocal activities and loads of movement as seen from their tracks, we eventually caught up with four male lions and a female lion as they were lounging around on some rocky outcrops, looking like they have had a good feast in the past couple of days.

Its very likely that old Nwaswitshaka males where detroned by 2 Charleston males in 2017 (idk how many of the 3 where still alive in that time, but they where 10+ yrs old then) , as they holded territory that Charlestons occupy in Kruger.
