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.

Check also that the book is from 1848, so, you can guess about its accuracy.
The 4 ft neck girth was from another creature. The lion had a 3ft 1 in. Neck girth or so.
Interesting, even then it includes the mane, so about 80 cm should be more accurate.
