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.

But still cool to see.
Recently saw a post of a old male sloth bear on FB. The caption spoke of his many scars on his face and how he had to overcome many battles in its life to make it so long.
It must be very hard for a sloth to make it to prime adulthood, they seem like extremely durable and capable fighters.
T 24 was an adult when this incident took place. Remember they were mating.
It's from 2011 correct? I would think ustaad was around 4, which would mean he's just coming into his breeding years but not in his mature, prime years just yet. I still consider 3-5 years as being sub adults. They usually have just left their mother (within a year) and they still have a bit of growing to do. Their life experience is still lacking and they have just started to test themselves so I don't think their confidence is quite there yet.
