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.

A cat bats a mouse into the air. These images were taken by amateur photographer Angelo DeSantis who arrived home to find his two-year-old cat Dexter playing with a mouse. Mr DeSantis captured the shot of Dexter throwing the mouse into the air with such force the mouse does a somersault...

  A massive crocodile and a protective mother hippopotamus lock jaws in a titanic battle in the Shire River, in the Liwonde National Park, Malawi. The reptile burst out of the shallows, jaws open, lunging towards a hippo and her calf. At first it looked like the reptile had the upper hand, but the hippo sent the scaly intruder packing bloodied and bruised...

 A great white shark breaches the ocean as it hunts in False Bay, South Africa. This lethal 20 foot long leaping shark may look like it has made a spectacular kill - but no seal was hurt during the shooting of these pictures. Michael Rutzen, from Kleinbaai, South Africa used a five foot-long foam and fibreglass dummy seal tied to his boat to lure the sharks out of the water.

Photographer Max Waugh caught this confrontation between a coyote and a plucky otter in the freezing wastes of Yellowstone Park. The unsuspecting otter stuck its head out of an ice hole to find a hungry coyote looking straight at him. Undeterred, the otter leapt out and launched a pre-emptive strike that sent the hapless carnivore running away with its tail between its legs before it could even think of lunch.

A fearless warthog turns the tables on a cheetah who wanted it for dinner, at the Tshukudu Private Game Reserve in South Africa. As the big cat sprinted towards its prey, the warthog performed a u-turn and charged towards the baffled cheetah who quickly bolted in the opposite direction. The cheetah was left embarrassed and hungry and loped off with its tail between its legs in search of an easier meal. The shots were captured by wildlife photographer Stu Porter.

This hungry bird gives another meaning to the term spear fishing - as she turns her unlucky prey into a fish kebab. The anhinga bird spotted the fish swimming in a river before setting her sights on it for tea. She dived in head first and expertly skewered the fish with her beak...

A python became the focus of an epic tug-of-war between two leopards. The six-and-a-half-foot (2m) long African rock python became the unwilling "rope" in the game, after being caught by a female leopard in the long grass. But as she dragged it, still wriggling, along behind her, she was ambushed by her son who wanted to land the kill for himself. The young male snatched the end of the enormous snake in his powerful jaws, and tried to tug it away from his mother..

A giant vulture and a hungry jackal fight over a pile of bones. Photographer Stephen Earle snapped the scene from a hide as the two animals battled at Giant's Castle Game Reserve in Kwazulu Natal, South Africa. The vulture backed away following a one-minute stand-off with the black-backed jackal.

A ferocious great white shark looks like it is having a laugh as it smiles for the camera. Photographer Mike Parry was standing just 5ft away from the powerful predator when it broke through the water near his small fishing boat near Dyer Island, Cape Province, South Africa. He said: "No one on the boat could believe that I was lucky enough to catch the exact moment. It takes a lot of waiting and patience for that one lucky shot."
