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.

African male leopard on eland bull ( Kingdon 70 kg to 400 to 900 kg not much detail given in this solitary event)
Canadian male puma on elk bull ( 80 kg to 300 kg)
Snow Leopard female on male ibex ( 35 kg to 75 kg)
Male Bengal tiger on female Indian rhino ( 200 kg to 1400 kg)
Male timber wolf on subadult bison ( 75 kg on 300 kg) Frozen Planet
Female spotted hyena on wildebeest bull ( 70 kg to 270 kg)
