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.

Here is what I mean by "Leggy"

Asian Elephant (Notice the length of his front limbs compared to his body)

Now when I look at both, Africans have very long legs as well. You know what I notice about the Asian Elephants, they seem to be almost "lifted" in front end. Like their front limbs are quite taller than their back limbs. Image a car who is lifted in the front only. Kind of like that, if it makes sense to you?
