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.
BEARS of the last frontier by Chris Morgan... Bears are among the most intelligent mammals on earth, but they are wildly misunderstood. We set out to immerse ourselves in their world and to further understand these majestic animals on their own ground. Our journey covered more than 3,000 miles by road and many thousands more by bush plane. Alaska harbors all three of North America's bear species, from 300 pound blacki bears to polar and brown bears weighing well over half a ton. It is home to the highest mountains on the continent, vast glaciers, immense forests, and a level of isolation to be found nowhere else in the United States.
