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.
To begin this new thread: Portrait of a proboscis monkey bachelor. The big-nosed monkey typically lives close to water and is the most prolific swimmer among the wild primates. It has webbed feet, is happy to cross rivers and is capable of swimming up to 20 meters underwater. You sometimes see it jump from trees straight into the river, landing with a loud belly flop.
