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.

From the book "The Story Of Asia's Lions" quoting Claudius Aelinaus (2nd century Roman) from his work "On Peculiarities of Animals". His information on India was based on what he had heard or read.

"I have no reasons whatsoever to doubt that the lions of the largest size are found in India, and what convinces me is that this country is such an excellent mother of other animals. The skins of these lions look black - the bristly hair of their mane stands erect, their very aspect strikes the soul with terror and dismay"
