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.
Jens Cullmann:" Another day, another monkey rescue ... this vervet monkey got at the same puddle stuck as the one, I posted last week. the difference is just, behind this one was this huge hippo bull. I don’t know how, but somehow I managed to ,probably annoy the hippo with my presence, to walk out of this mud paddle. Unfortunately half way gone, it turned around and started running towards me. Image three was the only not blurry picture. After that I fled/run in the opposite direction. (my first hippo attack, and luckily this hippo stopped after a few meters again ?) ... unfortunately it was still around but fortunately a bit further away. When I went back to the monkey, I was scared, that it might attack again. But luckily I could get this monkey easy out with a long branch. "
