Question School project
Posted by: Wolf Nuijten - 03-08-2024, 04:22 PM - Forum: Questions - No Replies
Hello I'm Wolf Nuijten and I'm currently working on a school project for my senior year. I study product design and I want to make a product that scares animals away. I don't want my product to harm animals so guns are overruled. The animals I'm focusing on live in regions like Alaska, Canada and North-America. Currently I'm focusing on bears, deer and wolves. 

How do you prevent coming face to face with an animal? 
What to do if you come face to face? 
What do I need to bring if I'm going on hikes in regions like this?
How do I scare them away in general? 

If someone knows a lot about this subject, that would really help me out. 

Thank you very much.

  Seeking Suggestions for Cute Fox Names
Posted by: jonesteave - 02-26-2024, 09:25 AM - Forum: Miscellaneous - Replies (3)
Hey everyone, 

I'm in need of some creative input! I recently adopted an adorable fox companion, and I'm searching for the perfect name. She's playful, mischievous, and has the most captivating eyes. I want a name that reflects her personality and charm. I've been brainstorming a few options like "Fiona," "Juniper," and "Sunny," but I'm open to suggestions! What are some cute and unique names you can think of for a fox? Any inspiration from literature, mythology, or nature would be fantastic.

Wink talk about a full explanation.

Hello, I'm new here, a pleasure.

Let's talk about this topic.
well, I mean, there's a great explanation's for this, it's on r/jaguarland.
the post is "Jaguar weights and Measurements compilation:A review."

It's really worth it, I recomend you see it, it's really worth it.

but I will say one thing.

They didn't estimate Joker to be 159 kg, he was 155 kg.
Furthermore, yes, probably 128 cm of chest would be the normal size for a jaguar over 140 kg.
But one thing is a jaguar with a chest measuring 128 cm, but with all other measurements being average.
Another thing is Joker who, in addition to his 128 cm chest, also has a 1.80 m body, which is exceptional for a Jaguar, a neck circumference compared to that of a leopard and several other things, which makes him over 150 kg.

  Madikwe Game Reserve Lions
Posted by: Charan Singh - 12-30-2023, 04:43 PM - Forum: Lion - Replies (9)
I found no thread on Lions of Madikwe Game Reserve, South Africa. Therefore, I am starting this thread with the Mahiwa collation of the Madikwe Game Reserve, South Africa.

The game reserve:
Madikwe Game Reserve, situated 90 km north of Zeerust, was once farmland with poor soil for successful farming. After thorough research, the South African government repurposed the land into a provincial park to uplift the economically challenged area.

As the fifth largest game reserve in South Africa, Madikwe spans 680 km² and 750 km², including privately owned land. Renowned for conservation efforts, it boasts a diverse array of wildlife, including lions, leopards, elephants, Cape buffaloes, and both white and black rhinos, as well as various plains antelope species.

Madikwe's uniqueness stems from its location at the Kalahari and Bushveld transition zones. The climate is generally mild to hot, with occasional cold winter nights. Hosting over 350 bird species, the reserve is close to Pilanesberg National Park, with plans for a corridor development between the two parks.

The reserve has recently opened itself up to private farms outside the main reserve. Private users need to abide by parks board rules, animals can roam over any land, but there are restrictions as to where private vehicles can drive.

Game Reserve location 


The Mahiwa Collation:
It consists of two lions Dark Mane and Blondie, born in & around 2016 and currently around 8 and in their prime. I found them beautiful with hardly any scars, especially given their age. Few marks that are there seem to result from sibling fights or fights with lionesses. Dark Mane Mahiwa was sired by the big Kwandwe male and looks a lot like his father. Monomoholo was the partner of the big Kwandwe male. Kwandwe males were born in & around 2010.

  Debugging Jamhol
Posted by: Nemesis_19 - 12-27-2023, 02:50 PM - Forum: Tiger - Replies (3)
Can anyone tell me the story of Jamhol?

Is Mahaman his father, or is Dotty his mother?

Why do you think Mahaman/Dotty are allowing him to stay?

Is it because of his submission due to his broken fang?

Can tigers with a broken fang still be deadly to other tigers?

Since Mahaman will soon lose dominance, can Jamhol be the next successor, is he worthy?
