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.
If the tigers were going to live in the African savannahs, they should have to adapt in this new biotop for them. Yes !
But we only consider this problem by the means of the tigers potentialities. A new huge predator going on stage isn't an insignificant event for the whole native predators "community". And especially the apex predator of this biotop for a long time: the lions.
The tigers would have to adapt in order to thrive in the savannahs by becoming social predators ? The lions would have to adapt too in front of an opponent they didn't know before. And same thing as concerns the other social predators: hyenas and African wild dogs.
It would be anything but an one-sided conflict.
