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.
The scars on a lion's face are often attributed to battles fought, rivals chased off, and a life defending territory and pride against usurpers. More often than not though, these scars are inflicted by kin. All ideas of being a social creature get tossed out the window when there's food at stake and lions revert back to their raw, savagely individual selves. Two Birmingham males dispute the choicest bits from an impala kill. photo credits: Londolozi
