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.

Sheesh, because Pendjari National Park in Benin is on the border with Burkina Faso, which is plagued by terrorism, it's dangerous to go there, because Burkini terrorists may be hiding there: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-48238884


"Mr Lassimouillas was kidnapped on 1 May along with Patrick Picque. The two music teachers were on safari in the remote Pendjari National Park in northern Benin. ... Mr Picque, Mr Lassimouillas and their guide disappeared from the Pendjari National Park. The disfigured body of their guide was found shortly after they disappeared, along with their abandoned vehicle."

A very terrible thing indeed, Benin still has a long way to go in terms of security.
