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.

When this happened?
So sad!
Apparently missing since last year, but with all this splitting in few groups and chaos with Ndhzenga males, we couldn't see if they are all accounted for.
I don’t want to clog up this thread with too much Kambula business (maybe admin can relocate) but there were at least 11 (of 12) Kambulas accounted for on 31 August. In this sighting of the Pride Core w N’waswitshaka on the eve of their attack on the Styx Pride, we can count 7 lionesses. This was when two sub females were still with the boys . One of those girls joined the core on 30 September.
So on 31 August we can account for 7 (core); 2 (Subs) and 2 (breakaways)
The reserves and their reports have had a torrid time keeping track. They themselves made some miscounts in recent reports. That final 12th girl has always been the one I couldn’t find but thought that maybe was denning at the time of the beach photo
It is simply another tangent, which can happen. However, I would ask, any further comments dealing with the Kambulas, especially regarding their numbers, and not specifically pertaining to the N'was, if everyone would please make them in the proper thread. Thanks!

Do we know if Nkuhlus are in their territory?
Whole MalaMala is not their territory, especially not southern areas from where this males came.

I agree. I think he is the tallest N'was male, although Amahle and Ubuso appear bigger because of their extra bulkiness. If Gore didn't get injured he would also develop quite a bulky appearance, and since he is the tallest, he would be undisputatedly the biggest N'was male.
