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.

A couple of shots of the Skybed males who controlled the territory around the Timbavati picnic area, taken by Michel Rademaker on the S39 in June 2015.

In late-2013 Ronesh Parbhoo encountered 3 Skybed brothers near Orpen Gate. These guys were some of the lesser known brothers of Scar and his often seen companion the tall brother. The first of the three brothers is this handsome lion with upturned orange eyes. Quite a few shots exist of him fromother photographers as well..

This is the second of three dark maned bros that Ronesh Parbhoo snapped near Orpen Gate in 2013. This boy was easily identified by the downward facing "C" brand on his right hind leg, his chewed left ear and numerous facial scars. He's the same guy seen above by Nicole Meiring. He was also one of the two boys who caused a stir when they pulled down a kudu on the H7 in 2015.

This is the third of the Skybeds that Ronesh Parbhoo shot in late 2013, the mighty dark maned Skybed who fought some of the Matimbas in Nov.2011. I believe he was the most dominant of the brothers. And credit to Ronesh Parbhoo who captured these guys so well in a quiet mood.
