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.
I have been a big nay sayer towards the bergmans rule simply becuase their are many examples that can debunk it, but there are also examples that can back it. So I'm still unsure, but for me to consider something a rule, I guess it would have to always correct. With animals, there are just far too many factors for there to be any "rule" IMO.
But that being said, kanwaar told me something interesting during our discussion, he of course said Kaziranga and Corbett had the big cats that he has ever seen with his own eyes, but he did say that tigers near the himalayas where the largest. But we never went into depth on why he said that and I don't think he has ever seen them in person. That being said, is their any weights on tigers from Bhutan area? Or eye witness accounts that would back that, that any of you have seen?
