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.

Each of them are special in their own way

Nsuku - Leader
Nhena - Biggest Mane
Tinyo - Darkest Mane
Mfumo - Biggest

In that video it is Tinyo at the front, Mfumo nearest the camera & Nsuku on the far side.

Nhenha isn't there. That's Tinyo, Mfumo and Nsuku... The lion which is in front is Tinyo..

Tinyo and Mfumo having little tug of war for the impala kill. Certainly these two are the most aggressive Birmingham Boys...

Nhena is there. That little mark on the right side of his snout is how I know, that mark is visible on some other photos as well.

The Lion at the front is Tinyo. The screenshot isn't the best quality but you can see the half moon notch in his ear.

The one in the front is Tinyo not Nhenha he has a scar near his right hind leg, the scar he has in his face was probably from fighting with Mfumo once again they both have fresh scars

Nkorho Bush Lodge:
24 September
Afternoon Drive
- Not too long afterwards an UNKNOWN male lion was found on the western side of the lodge. We believe the male to be one of the two STYX males. He was very injured by the BIRMINGHAM males the night before.
- Found two BIRMINGHAMS only a few hundred meters away from the unknown male busy roaring.


25 September
Morning Drive
- We started this morning by trying to find out if the UNKNOWN male lion was okay. 
We found him still resting west of the lodge.

In this picture of one of the styx males you can also see the teeth showing through the lips, this could be the same male.
