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.

This was a very unusual sighting of ‪#‎Indian‬ ‪#‎Gaur‬ when I was expecting ‪#‎Wild‬ ‪#‎Buffalo‬ in ‪#‎Kaziranga‬. Many of Forest Dept. persons also surprised with this sighting in KTR.

This bull was displaying for the benefit of another male, trying to look as big as possible in the hope that the other bull would back down, and in that way actual physical confrontation would be avoided."

If you have a hippo week you must have a big yawn as well.

Impressive how big that yawn is and how big those teeth or tusks are. Now we know why they cause so many deaths each year in rural Africa...!

Got to love the Chobe river.... it just has that something that you cannot explain!
If I was a hippo I'd probably live there as well.

Well it's the dawn of a new week - however sometimes I wish I was like this hippo just staying right in bed... :)

At least I get some coffee for my efforts (y)
