  • Tigers are really just big beautiful kitty cats

    I know them by name and could watch them all day long.

    I can take hundreds of pictures of them – never tiring of their beautiful features.

    Their strength is evident in their powerful shoulders and legs.

    Their massive paws glide effortlessly across logs, yet can take down prey in one swing.

    Their eyes tell a story.

    A story of strength and a story of sadness.

    No matter how I look at them, these animals melt my heart.

    This is Connor.

    Connor reminds me a lot of his mom Mek who moved to the Fresno Zoo.

    Such a beautiful kitty.

  • Tigress Danai

    My son the budding photographer had to show off last week with this amazing picture of Danai. The crowds were surrounding the glass, but he just scooted his way through the people, right up next to the glass, and took this beautiful portrait. Just one of the advantages to being a child at the zoo. (Yes, I am envious of my son.)

    Read more about Danai and how we met her in the post Our tiger encounter at the San Diego Zoo.
