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.

If it was his actual intestines he would be dead from infection. He can lay on it and get dirt and bugs but no infection. He can also roar fine so it’s not lung or diaphragm tissue.
Just looking it it it looks horrible tho, I thought same thing when I first saw him. Hopefully he’s not in a fight where it gets bit!
Does it hold him back at all?
It was mentioned here, some time ago, that it is essentially scar tissue that is often times referred to as "proud flesh". Lately, though, it does seem as if it gets bigger and smaller at times, and recently it certainly seems to be protruding further than it has in the past.
