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.

Many dont even know they're preyed upon by leopards. In fact I think they might be the most overrated animal, and I'm a fan of the great apes.

Gorillas are very interesting. Just surrounded a lot of myths, whatever is the reason. Seems to be difficult to find real information, which would be more than guessing when talking about strength.
Because pop culture depicts them as aggressive jiu jitsu behemoths that fight off multiple animals like King Kong when in reality they are very peaceful and are outclass by large bovines, large herbivores, mid to large sized bears and most big cats. 
If Bigfoot was real that’s how we would depict them too because it fascinates us.
