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.

Quote:Photo of the biggest Blue Whale I've seen to date I would like to know if anyone knows its origin and size? Because there are several versions about its origin and size?

- Photo was taken by Frank Hurley at Grytviken whaling station, Prince Edward Cove, South Georgia sometime between 1914-1917 this specimen was estimated to be 29.3 meters long or even possibly a little longer?
- On the 14th September 1912, a 29 meter long female Blue Whale was caught and harvested. It was found with its 7-meter-long calf off the coast of South Africa with its umbilical cord still attached; it appeared to have only just been born before it was killed?
