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.
Sabi Sand Game Reserve in South Africa. Early morning on a cutline we came across the Nkahuma pride lounging about in the cool of the early morning. Stayed quite a while with them looking at the antics of the youngsters playing. One of the youngsters approached the big male looking for some company and playful interaction. However the male was grumpy and in a filthy mood, in no uncertain terms he made the youngster know of his lack of a sense of humor on that early morning!! Just love these big cats!!!!
