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.
Harsha B. : " Tigers are a keystone species. They're integral to the health of the ecosystems in which they live. As apex predators, they keep prey species under control. This protects the vegetation which in turn maintains the integrity of streams, forests and croplands that provide people around the world with clean air, water, food and financial benefits. When we protect tigers, we protect ourselves. "
Harsha B. :" A tiger's hind legs are longer than its front legs, giving them the ability to leap forward 20 - 30 feet in one jump. Also have large, padded, feet that make it easier for them to silently stalk their prey. "
@Pckts, how old is Balwaan? He seems very young and would fill out nicely in a couple of years (he already looks decent). Also, who are the threats in his territory?
