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.
Ok, the lion is not as beautiful, fast, quick and agile as the other big cats.
Ok, lions are, if I am not completely wrong, the weakest ( pound for pound) among the big cats. I can even imagine a large Pantanal male jaguar defeating a lioness or defending himself succesfully against an attack from a small/average lion.
In my opinion, however, lion´s social life make this animal the most fascinating and interesting of all members of the vast felids family. It is really amazing to read all stories about Notch Boys, Mapogos, etc...
Thanks for all, specially "Majingilane", for some really nice pics and info !!
