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.

"Perfection? Not even close. But consider this...
This is a Jaguar, one of the most elusive big cats on our planet today. It’s a large male & this frame captures him engaged with me as the photographer. Before this he’d been moving with the thick riverine woodland, hardly showing himself. Then for a brief moment he steps into the open, slow & steady & eyes locked on to my guests & I on the boat. I do believe it perfectly captures this moment, it neatly sums up the story of this particular jaguar in that particular moment. For most not the most beautiful photograph but imperfect? I don’t think so ?"
