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.

Kashane male.

From Sabi Sabi Private Game Reserve, 18 Dec. '17:
"A majestic fully grown male Leopard was resting on a termite mound. Being overcast, he was likely trying to keep warm as well as have a good vantage point should any prey pass by. Some impala caught his attention and he began to move closer until he was approximately 15 meters from them when the wind changed direction and the impalas picked up on his scent which sent them running!"
