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.

Why would she?
She has a cub to protect and feed, she'd have to be crazy to mess with one of those monsters!
It still amazes me that Polar bears can prey on these creatures as it is, I find Walrus as impressive and tough as any prey taken by a lone predator. They may not be agile but they are massive, covered in protective fat and have huge tusks with no real vital points. Only way to kill one is a long and drawn out battle.
