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 heard that Timbavati has granted a new license to allow Trophy Hunting.
This could be detrimental for the Lions there, including the newly arrived Matimbas, Hairy Belly and Ginger.
