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.
If the Asiatic lion is in danger of extinction, and it is possible to preserve it at the cost of the subspecies being impure, isn't the cost worth it to save this lion? If the lineage were traced back, I'm sure that in some point in time, the Asiatic lion and the African lion were once one-and-the-same big cat.
