Cat Play Time!
Follow me on FACEBOOK
More water sports from the Big Cats!!! These guys chased eachother
around, pushed eachother in to the water, and in general caused a
riot! It was awesome. I got a bunch more of them today...
I've got a ton more from 11/06/2005 with the cats playing, check em
out!

Okay Jon, I'm not going to have any more room in my favs. Hey - if you happen to catch some great shots of any WHITE tigers, I would love it! I got some at Marine World here in CA but glass, fences etc. all in the way. No clear shots.

Oh oh oh. I am a zoologist who used to work in cat conservation. Omaha Zoo has a fabulous collection of tigers, from a variety standpiont. Sumatran, for example. I have visited a zoo in Britain in which five keepers have been killed by tigers!!! Not sanctioned by the British Zoological Society. A private zoo established by a now deceased man (not eaten) who made his fortune with a betting business. I always imagined a tiger keeper interview to go a bit like this...
1. Are quick on your feet?
2. Are you... tasty at all?

WOW incredible !

Beautiful capture!
Foto Buff (79 months ago | reply)
Amazing capture of a carefree and playful moment of the magnificent tiger. A sharp contrast to their true plight for survival to live on this planet with mankind. This may be the only way for us to save them. Sorry I got a little too political.....we have so many magnificient creatures and it would be a shame to loose any of them.
garyhymes (79 months ago | reply)
Fantastic...I love the series.
nicky's (79 months ago | reply)

Nikographer [Jon] (79 months ago | reply)
I accidentally cleared about 80 favs from this a couple weeks ago. If you see this via "photos you've commented on" just a heads up.
(I was so pissed, I made the photo private by accident!)

So lovely!
My kitten and I want to send you and yours a big New Years hug and kiss. Best regards to your dreams, and the new lives we make when we share those dreams!
I am almost jumping up and down with excitment, it's just hard to type that way!

A very lively shot, what do they feed them? LOL I only got shots of sleeping ones.
