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.
''Today we had the capture of our fifth Maned wolf of 2013. The first of this expedition. He was the 68th wolf captured in the Lobos da Canastra project since 2004.
Bolt, a male with an estimated age between 7 and 8 years old, he is the heaviest Maned Wolf known in the wild, he weights 33 kg. He's one of the largest animals captured in the project, he was fitted with a collar with a satellite transmitter that will send us twice a day its positions recorded every hour. This information will help in new strategies to be traced for the conservation of the species.
After 10 months of monitoring the collar will detach itself.''
