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.

@SVTIGRIS,
You are right that the Amur subspecies of both Tiger and Leopard already have some pre-disposed genetic adaptation to freezing climates, but all the other big cats can just as well evolve ti these climates, granted aome casualties.
Just like in most other species that meet a set of conditions or climate for the first time: some must die, and others must live for adaptation.
