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.
One of the Birmingham males (Nhena) sat intently listening to the calls of another male and female who were no more than a hundred meters away. Moments after this photograph he proceeded to roar in unison with the other two lions. This call could be one of many; either a territorial call to indicate to other lions their position or it may have been a contact call to the other male in the coalition in the pride. This sound is inexplainable and one of my guests was in tears of joy to have finally heard this incredible noise after numerous visits to the bush.

The Tsalala lioness and Birmingham male (Nhena) have still been seen together; we were fortunate enough to be in the right place at the right time to watch them mate on these boulders. Here the male was following the female as she moved off the rock. We are growing more and more hopeful that she will fall pregnant with each mating bout she has.

Always tough to see something like this. I hope it's injuries and not something serious like an illnes, I hope he recovers soon because I still haven't really gotten over Mfumo even.
