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.

All africans are not melanochaita. I said "African Lions" and you are comparing them giants of southern lions or melanochaita like mara, ngorongoro and okavango ... there are central and west african lions.
I dunno who said you that Gir Lions are smallest lions. Even when they are severely affected due to human factors and hunting they average 160 to 190 kg acc to 1993. Now, they are becoming larger and larger.
