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.

That doesn't hold good here, not so much.. atleast it's more complex.
(Even in Africa, don't didn't lions live in less denser forests of Gabon, CAR, Ethiopia, Rwanda wherever it could manage?)

The hills of proper Gir apparently has a somewhat similar degree of grassland/scrubland cover that does Ranthambore...some say lesser.
If i'm not mistaken, Girnar-hill Sanctuary has the largest density of lions presently...& THIS is how most of it looks like.

Also, the largest-ever pride here, the 32-strong Kamleshwar pride (named after the Kamleshwar Dam they live near) occupied a fairly densely forested land...However, it's quite loosely knit & they stay dispersed all over an area of 150 sq.kms, coming together occasionally to feed or socialise.




I CAN'T COMMENT ON WHICH ONE THEY PREFER MORE, THOUGH.
It's very confusing & whatever little that i know, isn't enough to do so...
