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.
I have found a book that shows some information and very rare photos of barbary lions from North Africa at the Leiden museum! One thing that called my attention is their size! They don´t seem to be very big, in fact, they are way smaller than the average size for lions! The average height of a male lion at the shoulders is about 1,2m and the larger one in book is a little bit above 1m!!
