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.

Little Runn of Kutch doesn’t have a prey base to support lions or cheetahs not to mention saline water which is not conducive for either species. There is a reason why only Great Indian Ass and a very specific breed of Dromedary camel inhabit these areas.


Even in medieval times, lions never occupied this area as the salt industry has thrived and has been active since IVC (Dholavira). 

I am not aware of the present condition of Banni grasslands and what kind of prey base it holds to sustain lions.
