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.

By the way, this also shows how irrelevant are the "total length" measurements when they are presented alone. With only that measurement, is impossible to see the real size of the animal, after all, how much is body and how much is tail?

 


Yes, and the tail can be extremely short on occasions or long, its pointless to look at total lenght. Head and body is the real indicator of size.
