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.

You seem to be missing the point, outside of seeing habitat, prey and weather first hand you get to talk to people like Paulo, I get to sit down with him and all others who've been involved in the Pantanal for their lives and ask them all the questions I can muster and bounce ideas off them on top of getting their points of view.
That is one of the major benefits of going to these places and that is the point I'm trying to make.
Quote:Also you're talking about attitude while you're talking to someone who helped Xavier Hubert-Brierre identify the leopards in Gabon so I suggest you tone down the attitude. Being a touris doesn't make anything smarter. In fact he is.
Whatever "attitude" I'm speaking with was a direct result of what was written prior.
I'm not sure what ID'ing he's done with Xavier, but regardless it doesn't give you the right to speak in a condescending tone.
I've never said I'm smarter than anyone, nor do a make claims that someone else is smarter than me or anyone else.
So no need to do that.
