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.

This shot of Tinyo and Mfumo was posted today, unfortunately the manes look a bit light colored for it to be current.

Does anyone here think that since a 4th kambula lioness has apparently given birth that the 3 boys will venture west to seek out the mhangeni females or elsewhere to continue to spread their genes?

Also It looks like atleast one of them is not able to bear any cubs so far

Nope, the one who killed had cubs during that time
MALAMALA TODAY: September 17th-19th
We have more exciting news regarding the Kambula pride as it can now be confirmed that a 4th lioness has given birth! It was a ‘once in a lifetime’ sighting as lucky guests watched the mother carry a newborn cub in her mouth. We had 7 other sightings of the rest of the Kambula pride, 6 of their cubs and 3 Gowrie males along the Sand River. Credits: image by Jacques Proust.
