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.

Good video. I am skeptical about the likelihood of success of Tiger Canyon’s stated aim to introduce wild tigers to Africa, and feel the project has more to do with tourism than it does with conservation.

To thrive in Africa and stand a chance against prides of lions or large clans of hyenas, tigers would have to transition to being a social animal. Their fondness for water would also be a great weakness, so they would have to become largely water-avoidant. In short…they would essentially have to adapt to become like lions. 

Tiger Canyon isn’t a great example of tigers thriving in Africa, as they are in a much more controlled environment, absent of conflict and competition (other than between the tigers themselves, of course). If lions and hyenas were to be introduced…I think it would get very ugly for the tigers.
