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.

"When we approached this Polar Bear, he was resting on a clump of ice, a hundred miles or more from the nearest shore. It was August, and the ice had retreated far to the north - a sure sign of another hot summer. Bears must follow the ice wherever it goes; they eat seals that depend on that ice for resting and raising their young. If the ice disappears completely in the summer - now considered a real possibility - Polar Bears are done for.
This bear was curious about us, and wandered over to have a closer look. Trying to catch, and interpret, our scent he stood up briefly on two legs, then rested back onto one paw. Even a top carnivore is not above striking a pose now and then..."
