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.

So, the 5th cub "meeting" the PC Males, when did this take place, and what exactly happened? The "cub" in question appears to have bite marks on the back of the neck, and has a limp, but given the PC boys' history I don't believe that is all this young lion would have suffered if attacked by them.

Both Dulini and now Savannah are reporting that there was an apparent new altercation with the PCMs.
In Dulini’s report, they said the Pride was seen with only 4 cubs for a few days afterwards, but then the 5th re-joined.
Here Savannah corroborated that story and it does seem as if it’s one of the Aunties has indeed some lacerations in the back.
No video or much clarity regarding how it went down. Or who involved. But I would consider it a mild miracle that the youngster lived.

When something like this happened with Red Road male, he had been in the Tintswalo male lion's back yard and they retaliated pretty quickly with him.
He stayed away from the Nharu pride for a couple weeks as he recovered from some bites and was not well received by the pride when he first came back.
As far as I know he has not done that again.
Skorro Jr. had been eating in Singita which is PC territory now, and it seems that they had a swift response to that.
Perhaps Skorro will just stay away from the pride for awhile and return again.
