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.

Bannerghatta is a zoo & safari park created by fencing some of the Bannerghatta national park's forest.

There are no know resident wild tigers... one males once entered in search of females. Same as Nandankanan of Odisha.

Kambaku River Lodge - Kruger National Park - Malelane


Amazing fight for territory as young male lions refuse to give up their kingdom and the trespassers pay dearly for trying to claim what does not belong to them. Filmed at Kambaku River Lodge, Kruger National Park.

Apparently that is an actual wild male on the outside that has his paw bit.
They said he patrols the fence and tries fight the male inside. Infact one said there are actually 2 tigers who do this.

If you have FB you can see the discussion on the post below, just search it and view the comments.

@Pckts, I know. In another thread about Tigers of South India, I mentioned the state of this lone wild tiger. He has tried many times to jump inside the Bannerghatta zoo and mate with females, but because he is unable to do so, he just roars throughout the night.

The park officials want to translocate a tigress from nearby tiger reserves, but NTCA rules are a stumbling block.

Older video, but in this two males really fight, not too often blood is so visible as it is in this. Nasty clawing.

After seeing recently many videos, in which leopard and hyena share meal, I wonder if hyena in this video was coming to ask other one to help in hunting.... and then looking like "oh shit... hopefully my mate survives..." That hyena really is almost comical there :)

"This is a rare video in which 2 wild male jaguar are fighting for territory. This is very rare video becasue there are very few moments captured on camera when 2 male wild jaguars are filmed fighting with each other, unlike other big cats where filming 2 males fighting for territory is common. The bigger male at right is called Colombiano and this incident is shot in 2014
Video is form Rio Negro in  Argentina and taken by Carol Denzin."

The lion and tiger are undoubtedly the largest and most powerful species of the Cat Family today, able to dominate whatever cheetah and leopard come their way, but the latter 2 don't always let the former 2 reign supreme:

Among leopards too, wild life is often violent...

An alpha male lion taking over a new pride. First thing to do after having expelled the males: to kill their cubs to ensure after that his genes will be transmitted during his life as quick as possible because he is going to rule over this pride for a limited time.

Life is hard...
