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.

Interesting table with the measurements of the Atlas of various felines.

A Find of Panthera leo spelaea GOLDFUSS (Felidae, Mammalia) from unknown Stratigraphic Position of Potočka zijalka (Slovenia) Krofel, 2004

Abstract:
"The atlas of a large felid from a small unpublished collection of the 1928-1935 excavation in Potočka zijalka has been studied. It belongs to the cave lion (Panthera leo spelaea), most likely to a female. This is the highest elevation fi nd belonging to the said species in Slovenia and the second one in the Slovenian Alpine region."
