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.

Obviously, tigers don't confuse other tigers with wolves like those birds species. It is because of competition not interspecific territoriality.
Brown and black bears are omnivores and amur leopards are not entirely sympatric with tiger. Strategies b/w them make their co occurrence possible but wolves didn't yet developed such adaptations to cope with tigers in the same area during evolution but they may develop in future like other predators did or may not.
Same thing happened to saber toothed cats and many pleistocene mega predators due to competitive exclusion. That's why they are no more today but tigers and leopards co evolved to coexist till today. So, are lions and tigers until 19th century before man separated them and that didn't happen naturally.
