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 was watching this video and it reminded me of what Alan Turner said in his book "Big Cats and their fossil relatives" that when you strip the fur down snow leopard's have a similar skeletal anatomy to cheetah's. Of course this is the opposite and the cheetah has more fur, but it does somewhat illustrate the point imo.
