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.

But now situation is what it is and far from easy. I am quite sure, that tigers and lions can find a way to coexist if there is enough space and prey animals for both. But what is situation after a few decades is totally another question. Of course when numbers are this low, even some individuals have more meaning, but if population numbers could be raised to some reasonable levels, interactions between these two species would be just a marginal factor for both, when they would be settling down.
Good analysis. Couldn't have explained that better myself.
Anyway both Lions and Tigers will be no more. No matter whether they allowed to live in same place or not. #HumanBeingsPrevail in the end. #SixthMassExtinction. All animals are doomed and in the verge of Extinction.
Well, overpopulation is maybe the most important issue to solve when thinking in a very realistic way. There are still vast forests and wildlife in some parts of the world, while in other places situation is very bad. Who knows, maybe the future of the tiger is after all in Russia and not in India.... it is difficult to know how things change in future. In Russia there are huge forests, it is easy to look at satellite images for anyone to see, where is room for wildlife and where agriculture claims more and more land.
