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.

Zico and Juju mating
Onçafari
''In these 10 years of work, we have learned a lot about the largest feline of the Americas.
Did you know that even outside the reproductive period jaguars still copulate? That is, when they are pregnant, lactating, or with cubs, they still mate with males in the region, and this may be related to the low rate of infanticide in the species.
We believe that the females copulate with the males to distract their attention and free the cub from the danger of being killed by these same males, and that there are very few records of males killing cubs exactly because they do not know if that cub is his or not.''
