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.

Male Blue Wildebeests in Combat
==========================
Wildebeests fight in an effort to gain dominance and take control of the herd – they knock heads and hit at the base of the horns but seldom injure one another. They go through a highly ritualized “challenge” in which they paw the ground, buck, snort and fight.
