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.
Actually the BDM's skull was the largest ever measured including all wild lions anywhere.
His body was never measured but he was darted and head guide of Timbavati said he was the largest they had ever darted with a tail girth as thick as his ankle.
This is very impressive since Timbavati had weighed Ximpoko at 283kg with a full stomach ad well as 1/3 Timbavati males at 259kg with little stomach content.
