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... Ringed seals are the mainstay of a polar bear's diet. Seals depend on ice, and so, in turn, do polar bears. In fact, the two species are so closely tied that the number of seals regulate the number of bears and vice versa like the relationship of the lynx and the snowshoe hare. It is even possible to estimate the number of seals from knowing the number of polar bears in a population.
