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.

Beverly Joubert: " Stereotypes of hyenas as skulking, lowly scavengers are entirely unjustified. These creatures have sophisticated social structures and brains with sizeable frontal lobes – similar to chimpanzees and humans – suggesting an intelligence that’s far superior to what is commonly assumed. For youngsters, like this adorable pup, social interactions are important at an early age. Cubs are born into complex hierarchies and females ‘inherit’ the ranks of their mothers. So if mom is a major player in the clan then her daughters will benefit from her social standing. But with great power comes great responsibility and the youngsters must act according to their rank or they may lose out to others in the den.⁣"
