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.

True.
Other factors also contributed to a distorted picture. What to think about the effect of the opinion of well-known biologists and zoologists involved in downgrading reliable records of their peers (referring to, for example, the records of the Sunquists)? And those operating in the department of 'food intake' and corrections?
But all of that will be addressed in the new series starting in some time in the Premium Section.
All of those interested can contribute by finding reliable information on extra-large wild big cats (lions and tigers). I'm sure there's much more than many think.
