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 wasn't in this sighting. I don't think I remember seeing him with Nkhulus since the fight, though I remember a video of him walking down the road with a young male a while ago, after the fight. The male looked thin, not sure if it was the unhealthy Nkhulu or some random male.

Impossible to know for sure.

But anyway in one of the videos of Gijimas and Talamatis together, the ranger said they heard a lion from a Kruger coalition roaring.

Probably a Nkhulu male. I just hope these guys will be content with what they got from Avocas.

Hard to tell at this point, only thing i think what is somehow certain is that this male is prob sired by Sharp Eyes:

He has that "eyes", blonde mane and easily recognizable muzzle of Sharp Eyes.

I think 6th/unhealthy male is aswell:

For reference, this is young Sharp Eyes:

For others idk, snip tailed make might be by 5th (orange eyes, black mane and pale skin) and oldest/smudge nose is prob either HF or Boss.

When they grown full males it will be easier to compare them with fathers.

Yes it's hard to tell but some facial specialities gives some idea but lot will clear when they enter in their prime

That is nowhere near enough for such a large coalition. Gijmas probably won't last long in this arena either unless Nkhulus will decide to develop their territory in some different direction.
