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.

We tracked this leopard at Ranthambore from quite a distance and caught up with it, thanks to skilful tracking by Hemraj Meena, and the gypsy driving skills of our driver. Don't miss the deer in the background apprehensively sizing up the predator, figuring out whether to bolt or hold their ground.

The most beautiful feline according to me. The beautiful leopards of Bandipur National Park has always mesmerised me. This male leopard was just relaxing after eating a spotted deer.

In wildlife there just cannot be guaranteed sighting of any species, however, if I may say so, the strike rate of sightings in Jhalana COULD BE more than 100, i.e , you may not sight a leopard in all your safaris, but you MAY sight more (or equal) number of leopards as your game drive.

It's a real treat to see a leopard on a tree
They look gorgeous on a tree rather on ground
