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.

Thats him again. My photo. He is rather small, I would estimate him to be around 160 kg, if not less...He is clearly smaller than his predecessor (also asiatic) who was 178 kg in his prime.

My photo. 14yo (I think). He lost his fangs and quite a lot of muscles. He is still impressive, but only a shadow of what he used to be. I saw him many times and I could observe his decline over the years.

Same male. This time my photo. Pure muscle. They had also an amur male who was even bigger. But that amur had to translocated to another facility, with better equipment for safety reasons. He managed to enter another enclosure and killed another animal. His behavoiour changed a lot sice then and he became really dangerous. Unfortunaltely I dont have good photo of that amur.
