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.

Wide Nose’s injury is quite concerning.   Poor boy has either severely discoated his leg or is broken. Sad

So unfortunate, damn!! His injury is looking more like Red Road's when he fought the Tintswalo.
Hopefully, he will recover as Red Road did.

I mean we talk about it already, dont know if its broken or dislocated, or just ligaments are damage, but at this point we know that this injury is very serious and will never fully heal.

I compared it to similar injury as BYM had, and he was severely limping for more then a year, WideNose's injury is prob even worse, and only just 2-3 months passed, so yea. 

He was limping on 2 legs already before (prob reason why he was caught in first place) , so that is even worse.

But overall, his condition on latest few sightings was really good. 

Until he has is brothers, he can live with it as long he has regular meals , its not like he is alone nomad or something. This boy is a fighter.

2 of the Ndhzenga males roar and walk with purpose as they enter the southern reaches of Northern Avoca male territory.

They are pushing further north, as i said, they will completley abandon their territory down south around Sabi Sabi and with that Styx and Southern Prides (they where not seen with them for around 2 months). 

S1 males are now regulary seen in Sabi Sabi in the past few weeks, even seen far in northern Sabi Sabi.

Yes i know, based of what coalitions do and where they are seen these days, they are already doing this for few months now, they already abandoned their former territory in Lion Sands many months ago and are now doing with Sabi Sabi (except around Selati Camp in the north) aswell in the past 2-3 months. 

Or are Ndhzengas some "new generation" of lion coalition that behaves in completly different manner then every other coalition, ever? I dont think so. 

Just open Sabi Sabi social network pages and count how many times where Ndhzengas seen at Sabi Sabi since the beggining of April?

Answer is 2 times, first one was 3 males patroling around mid April and injured Wide-Nose with Kambulas. Then in mid May, 3 males with Kambulas and Wide-Nose contact calling for his brothers, that was also far north around Selati Camp, rangers also then said that they didn't see them for long time. 

Since beggining of April, they where seen 0 times with Styx or Southern Prides. 

Ndhzengas are not seen regulary in Sabi Sabi anymore, once their core territory. 

Meanwhile, they are seen regulary in Londolozi and MalaMala and Kambulas. 

And this is not me making things up, just open Sabi Sabi page and scroll. 

And now in the past few weeks, we have new males on "their" former territory, even mating with their female and now few days ago seen far north in Sabi Sabi and now they even roar. Ofc if 2 new males push too far north, they will react. 

This is clear territorial shift and vacanting process which started since they expanded north, but what do i know, maybe they are on spring break in Londolozi and MalaMala, beaches on Sand river there are quite nice this time of the year lol.

It is unpredictable, but this different, its not predicting future out of blank, we have few months of evidence what is happening with lion dynamics there, and based of that and based of male coalitions behavior, we can see where this leads to, because we saw this x times in the past in this exact situation and outcome was always the same.
