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.

Yellow throated marten really seems to be predator of monkeys, looks like they habitually work in pairs when tackling monkey sized prey, this is from Corbett National Park, India




and the older/popular footage concerning Marten and Langoor

Nice. Both instances taking place on the ground; wonder if they drive healthy monkeys down from the trees or if they mainly opportunistically surprise them on land or when injured. Love martens and weasels.

 Image: Nayan Khanolkar (@nayankhanolkar ) // “The #KeoladeoNational Park, #Bharatpur, is a special place for me. Both, during my research days and subsequent photography trips, I have always witnessed unique natural history moments here. This picture shows one such rarest of rare moments. It captures a small Indian #civet ferrying its young one across an open forest glade. Sighting a civet during the day is itself rare... getting to photograph its breeding behaviour is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I was not only lucky to witness it, but also able to share it with others through this image – the main motive of my #photography.” – Nayan Khanolkar

Honey badgers (and wolverines too) look like small bears.

The man at the end of the video, did he get attacked by one of the ratels? Those honey badgers a.k.a ratels are very aggressive.
