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... Spring sees a change in diet for the bears that have learned to kill moose and caribou calves or scavenge on the remains of those that didn't make it through the trauma of birth. Pat Owen, one of the Denali park biologists, told me that she has also seen grizzly bears halfheartedly pursuing adult moose and caribou, but usually the chase didn't last long once the bears came to their senses. Wolves of course also prey upon these ungulate species, leaving valuable carcasses behind for opportunistic bears, wolverines, foxes, and ravens.
