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.

His father, 14 yo (I think). When I saw him first, he was 8 yo and he was around 220 kg (weighted). He obviously lost some weight since then...

Young krugers, male and female...the male is older...1 yo and around 70 kg. I took this photo at the exhibition for exotic animals breeders. These people have quite lot of lions and some tigers as well.

That's probably because, all of Nepal's captive stock are of pure Terai ancestry, whose coats often have a dark reddish hue, unlike India where Bengals from all over the subcontinent are mixed & outside India almost none are completely purebred!
