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... Anchorage: This city's human population is 280,000, which might not seem like a lot compared to Lower 48 standards, but if you take into account the fact that only 700,000 people live in the entire state of Alaska, the perspective becomes very clear indeed. Some 40 percent of Alaskans call this home. It is estimated that 4 wolf packs, 1,500 moose, more than 65 brown bears, and 250 to 350 black bears call the municipality of Anchorage home.
