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.

@Apollo :

About #579: I have read a small article about this animal "The tardigrade", able to not eat for several years, able to stop its life supports for several years too in order to be reborn after... To its size (0,5 millimeter), this animal is practically invincible.

Invincible and unknown, ignored by any living creature of the world. Perhaps too, this creature witnessed the whole Earth history...

Two young gaurs fought each other. Unfortunately the fight resulted in both getting there horns locked to eachother.
They were unable to escape from it. Forest department officials arrived, they tried to separate both the animals by pulling with ropes but nothing worked.
Finally vets were called in, the gaurs were sedated and the locked horns were cut.
But unfortunately both the gaurs didnt make it, they both died on the spot. 
Officials said the gaurs died due to injuries.







What could be the reason behind this deaths ? Kindly share your views.

IMO the stress, injuries and some tranquilizer dosage issues could have cost the deaths.

@Apollo It could have been the tranqs... Gaur sre notoriously sensitive to sedatives. 
That's why forest department try to avoid sedating them unlsss absolutely necessary. Do you recognise the risk they took by trying to pull them apart while they were awake??!!! That's the reason..
You can see so many videos of gaurs roaming into human settlements because of that.

Anyways, sad...But naturally they should have ended up as "cat-food"..So..fair enough.

Large Condor Regularly visits Man who saved it's life as a Baby.


The condor was nursed back to health by the man after the bird fell from his mother's nest as a baby.

And the condor clearly didn't forget his rescuer, as video footage shows the pair greeting each other with hugs and one big warm embrace, after the condor returned.

After being rescued, the condor – the largest bird in North America – was then able to learn how to fly and return to normal life.

It is not unusual for the condor to fly back and visit its rescuer, and according to locals the bird is said to return to visit the man fairly frequently.

A huge Amur tiger from the Chinese captivity.

Assuming his darker coat, it could be possibly a Manchurian descent?
