It 'a mysterious and strong partnership that established the brown bear photographed together with the she-wolf that every evening after a hard day of hunting, invites you to dinner. To capture the highlights of this strange coexistence was the photographer Lassi Rautiainen, which was stationed for days in clearings in northern Finland, where the two animals are habitually frequent. '' Nobody knows when to say and how you have approached'' - the author explains, - but it is certain that by now each of them needs the other"

Asian elephants can get much bigger (or smaller) depending on the subspecies with the smaller ones comparable in size to L. cyclotis. E. maximus maximus can reach 11 to 12ft tall, while the tallest recorded L. africana was 13ft. The biggest difference is in weight, as L. africana can get much heavier than E. m. maximus. It is still a great comparison though, and if I had the money, I would buy all three. Nice to see L. cyclotis get some attention. I hope to see one of them one day.
