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.
Quote: I meant it would have made more sense if Baloo was a Moon Bear or something smaller than Sher khan. Him being so big and losing made him look like real tool. If he were smaller and then fought the tiger tooth for tooth and then losing would have added so much to his character. It would have made him so much more better by having him risk his life against a bigger tiger to save the Boy's life.... Just my thoughts.. Yeah, I was holding back on that one. However, I have read a few articles about that while people are often charged by the Himalayan black bears, the brown bears of that location are very shy and avoid people. Also, the Himalayan brown bears have been seen retreating from the more aggressive black bears. So it appears that these brown bears lack the more typical grizzly attitude.
