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 im speaking about terms which he uses, ofc animals do have instincts which can be described like that, but i would call it confidence and fear.
For example lion is not a coward if he runs away from 3 attacking males, he is just running for his life, surviving, because if he stays and fight he will get killed.
Its like saying, you are a coward because you dont want to get killed.
Or as he says, they are cowards because they kill in unfair way, then every lion is a coward, whole pourpose of prides and coalitions is to kill in unfair way, otherwise they would be solo predators like leopards.
You cant use term coward when talking about animals.
