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.

Credits to Wild at Heart.

10 Below.....


I'm not quite ready for our nearly two feet of snow and -10F temperatures, but at least I can retreat to my warm house when I get too cold. Wildlife don't have that luxury, but many of the animals, including bison, are made for this weather. Bison have evolved to survive in this harsh climate and with their extremely thick double-layer coat, they can tolerate temperatures of up to -50F. 

Even knowing this, it doesn't stop me from worrying about how this big bull, who I call, "Patch" because of the missing patch of fur above his left shoulder, will fare during the frigid Wyoming winter.
