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.

The agony of defeat.
In mid May 2017, I witnessed this lone, defeated looking wolf struggle across Lamar Valley after being attacked by a rival pack over a bison calf kill. With its tail tucked between its legs, I watched as it walked across the valley until it couldn’t any longer. It slumped down out of sight and I thought for sure that it would soon die afterwards.
To my surprise, I learned later that it had in fact survived and appeared to have made a full recovery. Remarkably resilient creatures.

Lupine warfare is as ruthless as its feline counterpart, how I wish we could get more regular updates on the various packs and their status.
