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.

While following the 5 male Lions at Exeter this evening they came across a White Rhino cow and her calf of about 8 to 12 months, the Lions lay down in a half circle around the Rhinos about 15 metres away from them, the Rhino saw them but did not move off, one of the Lions stalked closer and the female Rhino immediately turned on him and walked towards the Lions, the Lions stood up and got out of the Rhinos way, it was clear from the Lions posture that they were interested in the Rhino calf but were not hungry enough to test the mother Rhinos defenses, after a brief standoff the Lions moved off.
