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.

Any natural biotop or environment you take into account, as long as it isn't devastated by men, the biggest herbivores are always heaviest than the biggest predators, and this often by far. Their colossal size are one of the means of defence (or dissuasion) among all the others. Pound for pound the predators are the strongest...
