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.

Didn't you see Rajah's video hunting of Water buffaloes in Tiger predation???
I have seen many, I know that there are cases where is a lot of courage and even suicidal elements. Then we have cases, where same animal can flee just like that. Of course from 1-2 videos can´t be made too big assumptions. I wrote as I did just to "shake up" a little bit and have some discussion maybe, that to what some assumptions are based on? Like that snow leopard would be "shy" compared to other big cats. It has been "traditionally" quite difficult to see and observe of course. What kind of hunter it is, is then so different thing.
Anyway usually big cats flee when there is a pack of big bovines who make counter attacks :)
