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.

BTW I visited Iran couple of years ago, and I was pleasantly surprised by the country, its culture and its people. I personaly dont consider them to be some kind of barbarians.
Every time I go over seas I leave with the same feeling. You know nothing about a culture or country until you step foot there. Every place is different but the same. There are good peopel everywhere, most people want to do good I believe. But those stories don't make headlines nor do they help these poorer countries receive $ from news stations for their stories. News stations only want to show graphic viewer grabbing headlines and those are the only stories they will buy. Thats why americans perception is usually so different from what its actually like to go to these places. At least from my expierences.
