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.

They lived the life, I can't even be sad for them.
My friend, my previous comment about being heartbroken, not that you are referencing it with your comment, had to do with seeing Fabio in such condition. The lion who was such a strong and beautiful male, that they gave him the name Fabio, to see him now in his current condition is heartbreaking for me. Especially given my knowledge of the things the two of them accomplished, for so many years. Their legendary status was hard fought, well earned, and I do not know if we will ever see many who are more successful. The Ross Males' accomplishments, and their longevity, will be celebrated for many years to come, that is for certain.
