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.
Mbiri males. Intense Lion sighting. Having such an important role as the leader and the defender, male lions put their bodies on the line to defend everything that is theirs.

Intense Lion. Males and females take on very different roles in the pride. Male lions spend their time guarding their territory and their cubs. Female lions are the primary hunters of the group.
