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.
It is posted, somewhere on this site, that water buffaloes do better than gaur against tigers. I will also add, the biggest and strongest are not always the better survivors. The grizzly survived when the giant cave bears and giant short-faced bears perished. Also, in N. America, it was the smaller bison species that survived. If the water buffaloes are doing better than the gaur in numbers, it very likely has nothing to do with who is the biggest and strongest. There are many variables.
