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.

I wouldn't dismiss the little sun bear so easily. Pound for pound he is a pretty tough fighter. For his size he has the longest canines and the longest wickedly-curved claws of any living bear. He has loose skin which makes it difficult for a adversary to get a good grip with his teeth. In past times, the Chinese Shar Pei was bred as a fighting dog with this quality in mind. For a bear, he has an impressive bite-force. This smallest of living bears is nothing to play with.
